Suli Seferov

The ambitious artist has an interesting fate, an artist of world-class character, he never lives with empty illusions. Suli Seferov confesses his religion to his plans: "Family is everything, work is conscience, and friends - the environment without which I cannot live completely!" He is an artist who claims that to be a man from the Balkans is a supreme feeling. "I hold on to our national tradition, which has deep historical roots, I love the patriarchal way of life and the festivities that must be celebrated". 

The artist is a winner of many Bulgarian and foreign awards, cavalier of the Medal of Arts and Literature of France in 1992, a favorite of prominent art galleries from all over the world, Seferov does not like to reveal his future creative appearances. For the simple reason that sales have to talk for themselves.

The maestro was born under a happy star. He grew up in an artistic family, which gave the initial impetus to his creative appearances. His family came to Bulgaria from Macedonia and Aegean Thrace. From these old lands his prophets arrive with the treasury of his spiritual life. With the music, the songs and the dances on earth that leave. That is why the folklore of the Balkans is like a rumble in Suli's blood.

Old legendary heroes, witches and beauties inhabit his world. In late afternoons, before darkness, his gradnmother used to tell the artist when he was a child old traditional tales of mythical heroes. They are so tangible that Sully sees how the images are born - attractive or terrible but in any case interesting. Since then, they remained in the mind of the mature artist and influenced his artistic pursuits. 

Born on December 8, 1943 in Sofia, Bulgaria, the artist graduated from the Art Academy in Sofia in 1969 in the class of Prof. Ilia Petrov, specializing in painting and fine arts.

He participated in many general and solo exhibitions, and in numerous events in Bulgaria and abroad: Canada, USA, Greece, Kuwait, France, Mexico, Poland, Switzerland, Japan, Great Britain, Yugoslavia, Germany, etc.
