Art installation reproduces sounds from interviews with key Bulgarian politicians

Photo: ica-sofia

A new exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art will raise the important question of what politicians have kept quiet about during the transition after the fall of the totalitarian regime in Bulgaria. The installation is called "Premalchiteli" (Those who kept silent). Its author, Antoni Raizhekov, draws attention to 30 famous personalities such as former Prime Ministers Zhan Videnov and Simeon Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, the honorary chairman of the MRF, Ahmed Dogan, and other.

Visitors can hear their exclamations, sighs, inarticulate sounds of inconvenience or hints of silence coming out of 30 cans. The sounds are taken from  interviews of the politicians and are reproduced at the same time, creating a kind of chorus of the things that have remained silenced. 

The exhibition is part of the Superpositions cycle and will be on display from March 5 to April 14.
