Visitors will be able to see 24 paintings of the boy with autism – all new and painted in the last nine months, according to the father Alexander Tsvetanov. According to experts, Sashko creates abstract art. "Expressionism, he includes different images in his paintings, there are forests, mountains, angels, spirits, figures", explains the parent.
