Задният двор на социализма в работите на четирима български фотографи от 80-те години на XX век...

During the 1980’s there are clearly outlined thematic restrictions on images and texts in the media, literature and the arts due to the censorship imposed by the socialist regime back in the 1950’s. In contrast to the shallow, propagandist style in the ideologized press, in art there is more freedom and even an opportunity for social commentary. One of the topics which remains a taboo, however, is that of communities marginalized for various reasons – ethnic, health-related (one of which are people with disabilities) – all of them characterized by the metaphor „the backyard of society.“ The works of four artists who focused their attention on this topic – Yordan (Yuri) Yordanov, Zheko Vassilev, Antoan Bozhinov and Rosen Kolarov – are the subject of study in this article.
