| "SOCIALIST REALISM" GALLERY | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The gallery
"L-Art" is located at the very beginning of Andriyivs'ky Uzviz in
Kyiv. We can definitely say that the gallery has become a center of
collecting Socialist Realism works. Here you can find hundreds of
the best paintings from the Soviet period that represent al the genres
and regions of Ukraine. This art tend has existed for a relatively short period. European collectors know about this fact, that is why, actually, their interest in paintings of Soviet period increases every day, proportionately to its prices. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The main distinguishing feature of this art trend is that it was patronized by the Soviet state, and the works of Socialist Realism period were made to the state's order. The task of the art of those times was to create an ideal image of the future and to enhance people to work harder and be socially active. While the whole world changed and developed, the Soviet Union remained an oasis, where realism traditions preserved. |

| Nevertheless,
"L-Art" does not set aside modern painters and modern art to maintain
the tie of the times. Monthly modern shows are usually kept here,
where the best works of modern Ukrainian artists are represented.
It is no wonder that these expositions attract foreign critics' and
visitors' attention. This gallery has gained its prestige already, and is well-known in Ukraine and abroad for its professional approach to the art. Each customer will meet a friendly advice on any related questions or consultation of its hostess Lyudmyla Bereznyts'ka, who is an art-critic and culture expert by profession. You will not find a casual picture in this gallery: everything is selected according to professional requirements of specialized galleries.

the same positive way. They have been kindly offered by the State
museum of theatre, music and cinema art of Ukraine. That's obvious
thing though that in the temple itself during the Orthodox Church
service no music instruments will be heard. Instead one will be hear
chore-a-capella. The present collection of creations of folk art is
a firm proof that folk traditions are still preciously kept up, are
alive and continue to exist, forming noticeable influence on church
ceremonies and professional art in Ukraine. The exhibition "BARVY
NARODNOGO MYSTEZTVA" has its own catalog. It will be open during three
days without days off. • back to TOP |
