With a conversation between Stefan Ivanov and Silvia Choleva

"With You" is the latest book by the poet and playwright Stefan Ivanov, and the first publication of Center for Social Vision. The author describes the text as a "poetic research essay" that found its origins as a response to the Center's first open call on How we think and do the social through the experience of art.

No Man's Land
An exhibition by Dessislava Terzieva
8 December 2022 – 2 February 2023
For the series “Illegal Аliens” (2022-), the artist transported Bulgarian idioms and store titles onto abandoned stand alone structures in Detroit. The exhibition in Swimming Pool features documentation of the “Illegal aliens” in Detroit. While the photographs look somber and distant, they question whether representation is possible at all, or is it rather demarcating the ghostly presence of these texts that exist as foreign entities in the space they inhabit.

WORDS BETWEEN US, HANGING JUST SO
5 february – 31 march 2022
The second edition of The Library of Our Encounters, titled words between us, hanging just so, continues to explore the idea of the encounter as a space for reflection and transformation. The project combines the personal and the collective – and turns the encounter between people and ideas into a way to slow down and reconsider our surrounding reality.
