On July 31, 2019 at 16.00, the exhibition “When birds sing…” dedicated to the memory of the famous Irkutsk painter Valery Chevelev (1946–2018) opens at the Gallery of Siberian Art (23 Karl Marx St.). The exposition presents the painter’s favorite genres - landscape, portrait, still life, demonstrating his cheerful and at the same time philosophical, thoughtful attitude to life and the world around him. The works were created mainly in the 1990–2000s, the period of the artist’s striking creative upsurge.
Valery Chevelev was born in 1946 in Irkutsk. In 1967 he graduated from the art department of the Irkutsk College of Arts. Member of IRO VTOO "Union of Artists of Russia" since 1991
Refined simplicity and lyrics penetrate the Siberian landscapes of Valery Chevelev, singing both the beauty of old Irkutsk and the Baikal open spaces. Impressed by a creative trip to the north of the region, to the Tayura River, a series of powerful taiga landscapes with a colorful flavor filled with the spirit of reserved freedom was written. Some of them will be shown at the exhibition.
Valery Chevelev is the author of portraits, among which are the images of contemporaries - friends and family members, representatives of the creative intelligentsia. His brushes belong to the literary images of A.S. Pushkin, M.Yu. Lermontov, which became a kind of picturesque result of his thoughts on the fate and destiny of the creators. A series of works created in Mongolia will be shown from the museum collection. Filled with sunlight and the energy of the steppes, these paintings will become an adornment of the exhibition.
The exposition will open as part of the multi-year project “To Remember…”, dedicated to the memory of the classics of Siberian art. It will present about 30 works from the collection of the Irkutsk Regional Art Museum, the artist’s family and private collections.
The exhibition will open on July 31 at 16.00 in the Gallery of Siberian Art (K. Marx St., 23) and will run until September 8. Entrance to the opening is free. Phone for inquiries: 33-43-89.
