The traditional "STREET ART Plener" once again pleasantly surprised the inhabitants of Ruse with masterfully painted panels placed at three bus stops in the city. The locations were selected by the organizers of the initiative - the Municipal Foundation "Ruse - City of Free Spirit" so as to correspond with the idea of the artist. The aim of the art project is the images and quotes of famous personalities to motivate and charge the inhabitants of Ruse, and the visitors of the city.
The updated views of the stops are located at str. 33 Borisova in front of the building of the Old Music High School, on str. Riga to Hospital "Medica" (stop "Crane North") and in front of the church "All Saints' (stop "Hospital"/).
At a "Hospital" stop, the image of the white dove of hope is accompanied by the words of basketball legend Michael Jordan, "Some people want it to happen, others pray it to happen, and others make it happen." A quote from former Nike CEO Phil Knight, "For those who can't hear the music, the dancers look crazy" accompanies the ballerina painted against the background of the Ruse State Opera building. This is the thematic decoration of the stop in front of the Old Music High School of Ruse. The third inspirational quote "Be a small drop of love in the ocean of someone else's pain" is by the Persian poet and philosopher Rumi. It is inscribed at the stop on Str. "Riga" next to Hospital "Medica" to remind people of the importance of showing kindness, mercy and humanity.
The three art panels are the work of Ruse artist Ilian Iliev, who graduated in Spatial Design at the VFU “Chernorizets Hrabar”. He is a freelance artist and also deals with airbrushing, body art and engraving. In 2024, Iliev won the Audience Award in the National Competition “The Charm of Ruse Architecture and the Art of Automotive Engineers”.
