Here is the 4th volume of Duvarmuzei – a new addition to the Plovdiv exhibition which you didn’t have the opportunity to see in Sofia.
Last evening we were setting up the poster-monuments “Allah razı olsun” at five sites in the neighborhood, with the help of a number of friends. These are memorials for the community’s achievements this spring when tens of grassroots initiatives helped with food those families which didn’t have any left.




The preliminary conversations about the setting up of the posters, and more generally, about the point of art and art-interventions, became the focal point of many new acquaintances and maybe emerging partnerships for our initiatives in Stolipinovo? They begin with a minute of silence after we explain our poster intentions, then followed by “It is very good what you are doing!”, and then sometimes with “What do you think about this idea I’ve had…”?
For example, with owner/manager of the covered market in Stolipinovo, we came up with the idea for a drop-in office there of the Filibeliler media, for those without internet who want to submit signals and news proposals to the “neighbourhood’s newspaper”. So, with the last bits of Duvarmuzei’s budget I printed out a sign for the office and a week later we put it up just next to the guy’s “Balkan Grill” one. 😉
