Press-release
About the work of Plamen Dejanoff, regarding the focalization on the economic dynamics that structure individual and collective lives of societies, we could say, at first glance, what Baudrillard wrote on the Americans, i.e. that it has no sense of simulation, but it is the perfect configuration, but it does not possess the language, being itself the model.
A feature that, formally reinforced by the maniacal aestheticism of his works and with titles such as “Collective Wishdream of Upperclass Possibilities”, makes him appearing like an “impostor” or “swindler” (as Nicolas Bourriaud defines him in the essay Post-Production) rousing, among bith curators and collectors, a curious form of Manichaeism that brings about a “for” or an “against” Dejanoff, sometimes becoming a real annoyance at his way of being.
We said “at first glance” because Dejanoff was born in Sofia and western capitalism, or better western hyper-capitalism (the artist studied in Japan) is a culture that does not belong to him, but for this very reason he could appropriate those mechanisms, which he reproduces with such paradoxical and exasperated radicalism, apparently a-critical, so to emphasize by excess the germs of egotism and decadence.

Veliko Tarnovois a small town in the centre of Bulgaria with a turbulent history. It was thescene of numerous battles between the Slavs and Ottomans and the site where thenation’s first democratic constitution was drawn up in 1879. Le Corbusier cameto Veliko Tarnovo in 1911 to study the architecture of the town, lined up alongthe foothills of the Balkan Mountains with the houses connected to one anotherlike a modular system.
The Slav Palacestands in the town centre. Built around 1720, it remains the tallest buildingin town (excepting the churches, of course). The forty closely staggered windowarches on the top floor are clearly visible from afar. During the communist erathe palace was owned by the state and interior walls were erected to divide thespacious rooms into smaller residential units. For many yearsplasterboard fixtures concealed the stucco, historic structure and in somecases, entire rooms.

By removing historical layers, he unmasks the political past of hishomeland while a
