Join us to find out more about Ukrainian avant-garde artists, many of whom are still often labelled as Russian.In the first decades of the 20th century, Ukrainian culture was shaped by artistic visionaries such as Kazimir Malevich, Oleksandra Exter, Davyd Burliuk, Dzyga Vertov, Vasyl Yermylov and others. Some of them remain little-known outside Ukraine, and the names that are familiar around the world are mostly identified in the context of the so-called Russian avant-garde. Join us to find out how Ukraine redefines the map of avant-garde.
Tetyana Filevska is a specialist on the avant-garde movement in Ukraine, in particular, Kazimir Malevich and his connection to the country. The discussion will be moderated by Ursula Woolley, Chair of the Ukrainian Institute London.
