A MOMENT BEFORE

The exhibition is built on artistic means, with which is tactfully tried to mix up customary classical artistic rhythms. According to the artists\'s own words the exposed pictures are a remix of his creation and of the creation of Albrecht Dürer, whom he quotes on his paintings in passing.
 
THE EXHIBITION IS SPECIAL BECAUSE OF THE EXECUTION OF THE WORKS AND THE DESIGN OF THE HALL
 
From the materials Valev Sein uses on his pictures glass, wood, textile, etc. Velvet fabric, spruce needles, pieces of plastic, mirrors, all of such items together form on each work a subtle and picturesque integer.
 
Design of the exhibition neglects regularity, is slightly chaotic, the exhibition hall that has deliberately not been put in order leaves the visitors the impression as if they they have because of some reason ended up in the exhibition hall just A MOMENT BEFORE its opening...
 
THE ARTIST HAS TRIED TO CAPTURE IN THE PICTURES JUST THIS SWEEET MOMENT BEFORE
 
taking place of something expected - the excited, desiring mood that precedes enjoying of dainties, the moment, when still is sweetly thought of the soon achievable or when it is fondled from afar with the eyes.
 
Valev Sein has been acting in the artistic landscapes already since the year 1987. As the student of painting of the ESAI he exhibited at different youth exhibitions, at the survey exhibitions of the Estonian art and as the member of GROUP T. Sein is the member of the Estonian Artists\' Association since 1992, when he also started with his personal exhibitions. At the moment the artist works as an assistant professor in the department of composition of the art faculty of the TPU. In addition to paintings he is also known as a creator of stained glass works.
