"I'm glad that "Love Toys" had a great success during my solo exhibition in Paris this March. The paintings "Puppet", "Obscure object of desire", "Cage" as well as "The harlequin and the Ballerina” have attracted crowds of admirers and have been immediately selected by President of the Association Stella Kalinina for the festival in Moscow", she added.
