ART-Emigrants
The first exhibition of the project «ART-Emigrants» took place in the Modern Fine Arts Museum of the Ukraine from November 27, 2008 till January 25, 2009. It was initiated by the Museum Director Mikhail Shevchenko. Visitors were offered pieces of painting, printmaking, sculpture and photography created by artists that left the Ukraine at different times and for different reasons. Today they are well known artists of the world, their works are displayed in museums and private collections. The project objective is with a succession of such shows to «bring back» creative works of these artists to the motherland and to include their names in the sphere of the national culture.
