On October 17, the first exhibition project of the autumn season opened for viewing at DiDi Gallery.
The exhibition presented abstract works by the famous St. Petersburg artist Valery Valran, made in the author’s unique “crumpled canvas” technique: “The canvas is pre-prepared (crumpled, covered with folds, wrinkles, etc.), that is, a kind of low relief is created, then it is pasted onto a tablet, primed and painted with oil paints.”
Despite the fact that these paintings were created from 1982 to 2001, they were almost never exhibited or published, so they will be interesting and new even for those who are well acquainted with the artist’s work.
You can find out detailed information about the exhibition and download the booklet in the “Exhibitions” section.
