The Sofianer is a collaborative art project that invites artists from Bulgaria and around the world to create a collection of covers of the imaginary magazine The Sofianer as a reverence to the iconic covers of the legendary magazine The New Yorker.
The project aims to celebrate our love for Sofia, to show its quirky, funny or absurd sides, to give a poetic or unexpected glimpse of today, to reveal our dreams for the future and to initiate a public debate about what kind of city we (want to) live in.
