Exhibition "ALLA GORSKAYA. BORIVITER" (Kyiv, Ukraine) until 28.04.24 is the first retrospective exhibition of the artist, which presents more than 100 works of painting, graphics, sketches of monumental works from museum and private collections, as well as archival materials.

The exhibition introduces visitors to the sketches of the most famous mosaic panels created by Horska's group in Kyiv and eastern Ukraine, stage designs for Les Taniuk's performances, and portraits of prominent Ukrainian figures such as Vasyl Stus, Ivan Svitlychnyi, Vasyl Symonenko, Ivan Drach, Lina Kostenko, and others. Especially for the exhibition, contemporary Ukrainian artists Oleksiy Say and Mykola Marusyk created a video and light installation based on the stained glass window "Shevchenko. Mother".

Alla Horska was a Ukrainian artist of the Sixties, a dissident, public figure, and human rights activist. The dramatic story of Alla Horska painfully resonates with the present: during her lifetime, she faced bans and dismantling of her works, expulsion from the Union of Artists, persecution by the KGB, and later brutal murder; now, the artist's mosaic panels in Mariupol, destroyed by the Russian occupiers, are being destroyed.

In particular, the composition "Boriviter", whose name appears in the title of the exhibition, was terribly damaged as a result of shelling of the city by Russian troops.

Today marks the day of astronautics. On this day, many years ago, a man flew into space for the first time. What in my childhood I thought was a fantasy, today has already come true and there are many discoveries ahead of me that I could not even dream of!

In honor of this holiday, I present a painting by Petro Boyko "Galaxy" from the collection of Kobzar Art Gallery
