Swimming Pool is a space for contemporary art for artistic and curatorial research with a focus on intersectional and collaborative practices, art education, art politics and institution-making. Founded in 2015 in Sofia by Viktoria Draganova and run by the Blue Cube Foundation, it houses an all-year program in its spaces which are located on a central rooftop with an empty outdoor pool built in the 1930s.
Since 2021, we also run the Center for Social Vision, is a platform and conceptual space for sharing knowledge, policies, and action to explore the intersection between the arts and society. It seeks moments of dialogue, reflection, and situated knowledge – those grounded in specific contexts and responsive to broader social and cultural narratives.
Since 2024 we organize the Nine Elephants festival that supports artistic and interdisciplinary practices in urban environment.
