Nedko Solakov; 99 Fears by Suzaan Boettger
Nedko Solakov's Fears is a series of 99 drawings, each one fleshing out an anxiety extracted from modern life -- whether real or imagined, dark or droll -- minutely hand-drawn and captioned in the artist's signature self-deprecating style. Nedko Solakov: 99 Fears will include the full series of drawings accompanied by an introduction by critic Suzaan Boettger placing them in the context of the artist’s prior work and connecting them to other representations of fear in art history.Nedko Solakov graduated from the Sofia Academy of Fine Art in 1981 in classical mural painting and has since developed works in a range of media, most notably drawing and installation. Widely loved for its sharp wit and offbeat humour, his work has been the subject of major solo exhibitions at venues around the globe, including CCAKitakyushu, Japan; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Madrid; Rooseum Malmo, Sweden; the Israel Museum, Jerusalem; and Kunsthaus Zurich. His work has also been featured in the world's most important international exhibitions, such as the Venice Biennale (1993, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2007), the Istanbul Biennial (1993, 1995, 2005) and Documenta (2007).
Suzaan Boettger is an art historian and critic based in New York. She is the author of Earthworks: Art and Landscape of the Sixties (2003).
