Gallery Charter presents “Coded in Blue” – the fourth edition of the series “From the storage”, which presents thematic selections of works from the collection of “To collect contemporary art. After black and white, now a space is opened for the color that we most often associate with imagination, silence, the immaterial and the deep.
The exhibition focuses on the iconic ultramarine color of Yves Klein and traces how different authors use blue – as an emotional accent, a conceptual code or a visual experience.
The gallery team presents works by Clemens Wolf, Simeon Stoilov, Stella Vasileva, Flavio Poli, Lyuben Zidarov, Rosen Rashev – Roshpaka and limited prints by Yves Klein himself.

The work consists of three main components: glass, reflection and refractions. I am interested in light as a means of transforming and generating new forms in space, by using glass, reflections and shadows on the nearby surfaces that are formed. In this way new volumes are created by (solar) light, reminiscent of a structure of geometric / ” architectural ” lines. These illusory combinations are a kind of experiment of our perceptions of reality.
