ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ARTIST

Dian graduated from the National High School of Applied Arts "Trevnenska Shkola", majoring in woodcarving, and then from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Veliko Tarnovo. He has long been fascinated by wood, its warmth and coziness. His skillful hands have sculpted the iconostases of more than three temples in different villages in the region. His work is the carved altar screens of the churches "St. John of Rila" in Petko Karavelovo, "Holy Ascension of Christ" in Radanovo and "Holy Nativity of the Virgin" in Polski Trambesh. Some of the holy images he created are now owned by private collectors in Greece and Italy. He learned the intricacies of icon painting from his grandfather Dimitar Kosev, who was a self-taught artist. It was from him that the Tarnovo native inherited his passion for art and his gift for painting.
“I love experimenting in art and allowing myself different freedoms both as a means of expression and as a technique. In my paintings, I use nets, leaves, soil, plastic. I have painted different images even on cardboard boxes. And my attempt to make a painting on marble turned out to be the most difficult,” the artist smiles.
Contemporary art with its unlimited creative freedom has attracted Dian Petrov for years. Initially, the young artist painted ordinary landscapes, then he was provoked by spontaneous realism, and now his paintings are the embodiment of abstractionism and postmodernism.
The art of the Tarnovo native is already well known to connoisseurs in our country and abroad. He has had solo exhibitions in Sofia, Plodovik, Veliko Tarnovo, etc. He has also participated in many general exhibitions in Bulgaria and abroad. His paintings delight connoisseurs throughout Bulgaria, as well as private collectors abroad, who regularly buy his paintings! He also participated in exhibitions in Hungary in 2024, a solo exhibition at the Grand Hotel Sofia. In 2025, a general exhibition in London at Theholyartgallerie.Solo exhibition at Grand Hotel Sofia 2026.
