À propos
We will be offering mini tours with the curator of “Ukrainian Folk Art. Our Legacy.” Ukrainian Folk Art connects different forms of spiritual, functional and decorative arts. Various folk motifs are used in producing and the decorating of household items, clothes, art and ritual objects. Those who visit the exhibition will experience a wide selection of embroidery, ceramics, woodcarving, ritual breads, paintings, weaving and pysanky – representing the best examples of Ukrainian Folk Art and showcasing this meaningful, symbolic and important traditional avenue of expression. The exhibition will feature many objects from private collections as well as the permanent collection of Oseredok. The concept of folk art and folk motifs and ritual objects has transcended generations and geographical location. Many predating Christianity and dating back as far as the bronze age, yet they remain relevant and popular today.
Also on at Oseredok in the main floor Multipurpose Room is the glass show, Colour and Light by local artist Pat Tymkiw.
