Nonsofia email format

nonsofia is a conceptual framework employing structural methodologies and aiming at establishing constructive dominance over local and international social contexts. as of 2012 the platform has been legally registered as the first non-profit entity to offer institutional support for non-objective art in bulgaria. making nonart aesthetics recognisable in bulgaria and bringing bulgaria onto the world map of non-objective art are among the association's primary goals. as part of its initiatives nonsofia launched orthogonal: international forum for non-objective art in 2012 (www.orthogonal.bg). since its debut, the forum has presented more than a hundred artefacts covering all artistic media along the last 70 years of non-objective art history. the works of 35 authors of 14 states have so far been exhibited. sofia, varna and burgas – 3 of bulgaria’s most major cities – have hosted a total of 6 shows. serving as a meeting point for institutions, artists and theorists of different nationalities and generations, orthogonal has already led to a series of international collaborations. its highlight, however, remain the orthogonal for children workshops, as they promise some steady hope for the future. in 2022, thanks to the considerable support of the national culture fund of the republic of bulgaria, nonsofia achieved one of its bravest goals, namely, the creation of its own physical space – an educational centre for geometric abstraction with a gallery, library and archive. and thanks to the heartfelt support of fondation gottfried honegger and mr gaudenz b. ruf we were able to extend our activities through 2023. we are located on 36 dondukov blvd in sofia and could be visited by invitation or appointment.
