Valery Bagaev "Behind the curtains of fuss ..." Automatic translate

The Mokhovaya-18 Gallery of Contemporary Art presents the exhibition “Behind the Scenes of the Bustle…”, which will be held from December 1-24, 2016.

The artist Valery Bagaev was born in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, currently lives and works in Nizhny Novgorod. He didn’t come to painting immediately, but one can confidently say that he found himself in it and devoted himself to creativity without a trace. Artistic activity dates back to the 2000s, the first solo exhibition “Something Human” was held in March 2006. An example for the artist was the “Small Dutch”, since the distinctive quality of these artists is a reminder of the eternal spiritual values ​​in the image of nature, objects, everyday scenes.

Valery Bagaev creates an extraordinary, colorful painting in the spirit of fantastic realism. The basis for his works can serve as a canvas, as well as multi-format boards, furniture, antique chests, mirror frames and other unusual surfaces. Plots of paintings always come from life, but the author’s generous imagination develops and continues one thread after another, creating entire fairy-tale cities and chamber genre scenes. Spectacular characters, magnificent “talking” still lifes, theaters and whole lives wrapped in coats - here the artist’s skill is intertwined with the gift of a narrator and a completely new, insanely interesting story originates.

The many-sided, deep and magical picturesque world of Valery Bagaev is a hobby that does not bother; these are eternal values ​​and strong emotions wrapped in the soft fabric of an ironic fable story. This is a powerful stream of meanings that tear out consciousness from ordinary life and carry away into the world of dreams, to where only good reigns, and where we all sometimes want to be.

At the exhibition of Valery Bagaev “Behind the curtains of vanity…” a peculiar pictorial theater will be presented, embodied in paintings moving into life and books. We offer you a glimpse into a fabulous and bright world that is becoming so difficult to notice in the rhythm of everyday life. And he continuously exists here and now. He is in our thoughts, one has only to awaken the imagination, pause the fuss.

Remember, you can not only give and feel good, but also see with your own eyes.

The exhibition can be visited daily from 11.30 to 19.30, weekends - Sunday, Monday. Address: st. Mokhovaya, d.18
