"The Entertainment of
Don Quixote"

Anthony Kirov is a painter and architect, born and raised in Bulgaria. He started painting at a very early age and studied art at the School of Fine Arts in his native town. During these early years, Mr. Kirov was inspired by the great masters of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries – Van Gogh, Kandinsky, Picasso, Chagall. In 1975 he graduated from the Higher Institute of Architecture and Design in Sofia, Bulgaria. After graduation Mr. Kirov worked as an architect and designer, while creating art works. With his passion for art and his eye for proportions, Mr. Kirov developed his unique style. Mr. Kirov's means of expression are the bright intense colors, dynamic composition, and imaginative spirit.

The warm and cold colors in his paintings are skillfully used in an endless play of tonal formation which produce the effect of multidimensional space. The artist builds upon this effect by successfully integrating the world of reality and abstraction, often using symbolic elements. Throughout his thirty plus years career, Anthony Kirov has participated in numerous exhibitions in Bulgaria, Austria, Norway, Belgium, Russia, France, and the United States. His art is held in private and public collections. Currently, Anthony Kirov lives and works in New York.
