The exhibition of watercolours by Kharkiv artists Valeriia Temnenko was opened in the AVEC Gallery within The Friend’s Image project. 50 pictures depicting animals are represented on it.
“These works represent animals, which are glad or sad; there are also abstract and postcard images. The exhibition is devoted, first of all, to the love of the nature and animals. It aims to demonstrate to people, who are always in a hurry and often do not understand the purpose of their rush, that happiness is in things around us,” Valeriia Temnenko tells. “Animals are the inhabitants of the planet, like people, but they feel and understand everything differently. It is necessary to treat them with love and respect, because losing touch with the nature, we lose ourselves.”
The exposition of the exhibition is located on the upper level of the AVEC Gallery (70, Sumska Str.)
It should be reminded that The Friend’s Image exhibition takes place in the AVEC Gallery now. It represents the bronze animalistic masterpieces from the collection of Oleksandr Feldman. It will be exhibit till the end of the next week. It was initially devoted to the image of dog, but later it was supplemented with the sculptures of other animals. The exposition consists of more than 100 bronze sculptures by over 40 authors of different schools of art, belonging to three generations. They include the works by the distinguished representatives of the famous School of Paris that played a very important part in the formation and the spread of animalistic genre in European sculpture. German, Austrian, Belgian and Russian schools of animalistic plastic art are also represented.
