To name a few galleries out of Canada,
Valeria exhibited her painting, batik and tapestry in Tokyo Metropolitan
Museum of Arts (Japan), Frankfurt Messe (Germany),
Chagall House (Israel), Krimsky Most Gallery (Russia),
Monserart Gallery (NY, USA), Los Gatos Museum of
Art (CA, USA),
At age 19, Valeria earned her first
professional artists diploma from the Industrial Arts
College; at 26 she got a masters degree in applied arts
from the Moscow State Textile Institute. Since then, Valeria
happened to change cities and countries before she settled in Toronto
(Canada), but through all the years she was doing what she does
the best turning a plain fabric into the
Art.
Some critics find her paintings to
have a delicate touch of classical Russian constructivism; Some
emphasize a flavour of interesting multi-cultural symbiosis;
Some point to her expressive freedom of sharing how she feels
Perhaps all this appears fairly true.
However, there still seems to be a bit of an intrigue around Valerias
paintings. One gripping detail could be probably exposed in this
context:
When you see more of Valerias
oils, an odd idea emerges: She does not actually paint
on canvas she
paints the canvas.
