It is a pleasure and indeed a privilege to be associated for the second year running with the work of the outstanding Bulgarian-Spanish artist Valentin Kovatchev.
Last year in March we had the chance to admire and partake in his successful exhibition “Metaphysical spaces” also held here in Brussels. This year´s “Metamorphosis” promises to be no less remarkable.
Mr. Kovatchev offers us a new collection of drawings, etchings, paintings and portraits. They are full of symbols but more importantly they are full of soul and sensitivity.
The technique used is very much Mr. Kovatchev´s own –an original style with a filigree quality. The great talent of the author, honed by hard and loving work, takes us on a journey through magical and surreal places and images. It is a dream world where even the most mundane ceases to be such. A fascinating mix which is very much worth seeing!
My thanks go to all those who have helped with this wonderful event. I already look forward to the next one!
