A total of six biennial salons have been held so far, the last of which was in 2009. More than 700 photographers from 31 countries have taken part in the events with more than 10,000 photographs. The salon has four modules: international photographic competition, authored and co-authored photo exhibitions (more than 60 for the six salons so far), theoretical seminar (organized in cooperation with New Bulgarian University since 2007), portfolio reviewing.
• Latest project (2009) – “The World of L.P.” project focuses on the community of small people in Bulgaria and draws the attention of society and the government to these people and their problems. The exhibition, which comprises 43 photos in 75x112.5 cm format and the life stories behind some of them, has been shown in a number of Bulgarian towns: Plovdiv (Mexican Graphics House), Montana (“Koutlovitza” Hall), Pleven (“Iliya Beshkov” Art Gallery), Sofia (“Alma Mater” Gallery, Sofia University “St Kliment Ohridski”) and Stara Zagora (“Zaharii Knyazhevski” Library). Members of the organization of “Small Bulgarians” were present at the exhibition openings in these places.
The goal of the project is to help the organization of “Small Bulgarians” to find people of short stature and also to aid the socialization of these people, whose social life is confined to a close circle of relatives and friends. The project was supported by “Workshop for Citizen Initiatives” Foundation.
