“The power of enchantment is in operation in the first time one encounters a DuBasky stag. They are posed at an interface between abstraction and figuration which is a very contemporary concern, and at the same time they are sounding boards resonating with prehistoric echoes.”
— William Zimmer, ARTS MAGAZINE
“At 90, Picasso went to a children’s art show and enthused, “when I was their age I drew like Raphael, but it has taken my whole life to learn how to draw like them.” Valentina DuBasky’s a quicker study than Picasso…DuBasky’s wonderful manipulation of color and subject is sensational rather than sentimental.”
— Carrey Rickey, THE VILLAGE VOICE
