"THE MEDAL - THIS IS ME" 15th INTERNATIONAL MEDALLIC PROJECT 2020 - Bulgaria
"THE MEDAL - THIS IS ME" because medals reflect
different aspects of our lives, our joys
and sorrows, dreams and disappointments. So the traditional ones for the project
seven medal sessions have the following names:
1 MY HOME, 2 MY TEMPLE, 3 MY SCHOOL, 4 MY FAMILY, 5 MY REFUGE, 6 MY WAY
7 myself.
The annual medal project starts in 2006 and is held annually in the months of
February, March, April, May, October, November and December. It is intended
as a parallel curriculum for additional incentive for students from the medal
Studio at the National Academy of Arts, but due to the great interest in the
project, we invite colleagues from other countries as well as students from
other educational institutions. This creative collaboration gives a unique opportunity
for young medalists to get acquainted with different world trends, concepts
and styles. For the past 14 years, 98 working sessions have been held at which
about 3500 medals and medal objects were presented. At the end of each working
session a virtual exhibition of all participants is organized with a poster
catalog that can be viewed on several websites. At the Academy of Arts, we arrange
one-day exhibition of works in material. These are monthly exhibitions are very
attractive to young artists in their first steps in the art of the medal, and
promote its popularization. Contributing to this is the regular participation
of both established and young authors from different countries. The project
participants have complete freedom to interpret the topics as well as to choose
materials and techniques.
To participate in the project it is necessary to send a picture of a 300 dpi.
