A new donation to the exhibition on Hristo Yavashev-Christo in the National Gallery Kvardat 500 is now a fact. In 2012, Vladimir Tchimov and his wife donated to the then National Gallery of Foreign Art works by Hristo Yavashev-Christo from his student years at the National Art Academy. These works have been exhibited in hall 27 of "Kvadrat 500" National Gallery ever since the opening of the gallery. 

Almost 10 years later, Tchimov made a new donation, provoked by a personal interpretation of projects outlining Christo's international creative success, the gallery explains. 


The temporary exhibition is entitled "Christo - Art and Colors" and will remain in Hall 27 of the National Gallery until April 7 this year.
