Summary/Abstract: Bulgarian Passion in Art Education. On the Dualistic Educational “model” of the State School of Drawing and its Dimensions in Applied art training throughout the first two decades of the 20th century The author offers a new interpretation of some aspects of training of the Arts in Bulgaria realized, yet in sufficiently touching on the problems of art education in the country. Most provocative is that of the two possible variants in education - namely the one which has been realized, in other words, the one which is already “history” and the other one, namely the hypothetical one, which was only partially introduced, temporarily, with a compromise. Essentially these two types stand for two types of specialized training - academic training, or the classical type of teaching art, on the one hand and the applied cum applied on the others. In fact the educational model introduced throughout the first decade and in particular throughout the second decade since the establishment of the school was a suigeneris dualistic model of both types which brought on a confrontation - a clash similar to passing between Scylla and Charybdis. Building up a syllabus on two quite different principles and the intertwining of the two conflicting points of views in its structure even to this day justifies two conflicting points of view, underlying two totally different alternatives, each running in two opposite directions, each one seen at the time as the only suitable one.
