Ivo Dimchev is a theatre maker, choreographer, visual artist, singer-songwriter and queer activist from Bulgaria. His work is an extreme and colorful mix of performance art, dance, theater, music, painting, and photography. He is the author of more than 40 stage performances and has received numerous international awards for dance and theater.
Ivo Dimchev offers a live concert of songs that were created across the span of career, to date. Enormous musicality and remarkable vocal gifts have been signature parts of all of Dimchev’s legendary contemporary dance theatre productions and solo concerts.
Known as an irreverent and provocative performance artist, the chameleon-like queer Bulgarian choreographer, performer and activist has recently been exploring the universe of sound. Musical research is now the core of his practice, with lyrics that weave a dark poetry around the listener. His is equal parts carnal and sweet, capricious and elegant. With a stage presence oscillating between rock star and “prima donna,” Dimchev rips out your heart and licks it before leading you onto the club dance floor. Truly a master of performance, Dimchev’s emotional voice will move even the coldest of creatures. His voice somehow always remains in a poetic borderland, a perfect balance of melodies and rhythms. The artist turns his voice into an inexhaustible resonating body, sometimes bluesy, sometimes romantic, sometimes melancholy, sometimes techno, but always powerful.
»A queer performance artist who improbably became one of the most famous Bulgarian singer songwriters.« – The New Yorker
»Ivo Dimchev is a cultural phenomenon.« – BBC Radio
