In addition to Revival art, the Tryavna Museum also
preserves many examples of modern art. They are here due to the generous
donations made by artists and collectors. One of the first people to donate
objects was the painter Ivan Hristov. Many paintings recreating the
atmosphere of Bulgarian Revival towns were made with his brush. The
collector Totiu Gubenski donated over 500 paintings by about 80 Bulgarian
painters from the beginning to the end of the 20th century.
Tryavna also has the largest collection of Dimitur Kazakov – Neron. Private
and public galleries all over the world own his paintings. The permanent
exhibition with his best works is on display at the Old shkolo
(school). The exhibition very well incorporates works – wood sculptures – by
his brother, Nikola Kazakov. The two of them create an atmosphere in which
time is relative while the layers are innumerable. The Museum also houses a
permanent exhibition of works by one of the first Bulgarian painters, Ivan
Popdimitrov. These are oil paintings from the end of the 19th and
the beginning of the 20th century. In addition, the Museum has
large independent collections of interesting contemporary artists. Prof.
Ivan Gazdov has donated a unique collection of graphicatures. Prof.
Nikolai Maistorov is presented with a series of graphics which include
Unamuno – Cervantes, The Bible and others. There are also
sculptures and pictures by Ivan Kolev, graphics by Tsanko Panov and
paintings by Tsvetan Kolev in which one can find folklore, mythology and
philosophy...
