Description

Recognition of Ukraine's rich cultural heritage, drawing from over 100 of the country's most important works of art and architectural monuments from prehistory to the present day. It showcases more than two hundred objects and buildings - from Byzantine icons and wooden churches to golden domes, folk art, and avant-garde masterpieces - Treasures of Ukraine narrates the rich art and heritage of a country facing destruction and devastation. The significance of the pieces is explained by acclaimed artists, curators, and critics, revealing the country's complex history and its impact on the present. From the development of ancient civilizations such as Trypillia and Scythia, to early states like Kievan Rus and the Cossack Hetmanate, to the dawn of Modernism and the striking contemporary paintings and political works being produced today, Treasures of Ukraine reminds us that art and monuments represent powerful sources of collective memory and identity. All proceeds will be donated to PEN Ukraine, to support Ukrainian writers in need and to support museums in Ukraine.
