Natalya Bronzova is the first Russian visual artist being exhibited in the Cultural Center of the Philippines! Her exhibition “From Russian soul with Love” was presented in the main lobby of the CCP by the Russian Embassy in Manila, on February 10th 2017. Ms. Jewel Lobaton Pimentel, wife of the Philippines Senate President, was event patron. The exhibition was officially inaugurated by distinguished guests: Russian Ambassador Igor A. Khovaev, President of CCP Dr. Raul Sunico, Ms. Jewel Lobaton Pimentel and Ms. Cory Quirino.

The exhibition proceeded with a Russian flavour; it began with the national anthems of the Philippines and that of the Russian Federation. Posters, cocktail tables, flowers and even the inauguration ribbon were all in Russian colors: white, blue and red! Guests where treated to Russian cuisine specialties: Olivier salad, marinated mushrooms and of course salted cabbage.

In the best Russian Imperial traditions classic performers entertained guests and complimented the visual art exhibition. In addition to Russian performers guests enjoyed outstanding piano music played by CCP President, Dr. Raul Sunico who so graciously accepted Ms Bronzova’s request. This was a great gift by Philippine’s greatest pianist to the artist and her guests!

This was a unique and very high class evening tinted with a miraculous atmosphere opening all possibilities akin to the fairytale stories which Natalya splashes onto her canvases! Reality mixes with dreams and legends – this is the world Natalya creates in her paintings! One simply wishes to dive into the canvas and be in her dream world of vivid colors and divine energy… All guests agreed that Natalya’s paintings made them more happy and put peace in their mind; this recognition is the greatest possible success for any artist!
