The fourth Great Sculpture Exhibition, that annually represents masterpieces of world-known geniuses and bright palette of modern Ukrainian sculpture, is opening on 1 of March.
The main events of the Great Sculpture Exhibition 2010 are:
- Exposition of sculpture of art deco star Demetre Chiparus – represented by Ihor Voronov collection
- British collection of one of the world-famous Ukrainian sculptor Gregor Kruk – represented by collection of Ukrainian Shevchenko Library in London.
This year the Great Sculpture Exhibition will represent:
- Large scale exposition of wooden sculpture
“Wooden sculpture on the edge of centuries” (sculptors – Mykola Stepanov, Poman Petruk, Mykola Kryvenko, Mykola Malyshko, Oleksandr Babak and Tamara Babak, Oleksandr Ridnyi, Hanna Ivaniova).
- 40 presentation expositions of modern Ukrainian sculptors (full list of sculptors you may find on “ART-Ukraine” Magazine website www.artukraine.com.ua)
- Special projects of leading Ukrainian galleries and curators:
“Freedom or death. Anarchocats against transformers-2 (the battle continues)” by Union of free artists. Authors and co-curators of the project are Antin Mykharskyi, Ivan Semesiuk, CYI “TOTEM” represented by Stas Voliazlovskyi and Max Afanasiev (videoart).
Special project “Realities” represented by collection gallery (curator – Dmytro Diulfan).
The Great Sculpture Exhibition as an effective tool for popularization of modern sculpture is a bright reflection of plastic art development tendencies and somehow the native art-environment evolution as well. For the last four years the Great Sculpture Exhibition has become an important link in a process of art-market development. Topicality of the art-fair is confirmed by public attention and the great interest of mass media (during the exhibition Ukrainian House is attended by tens of thousands of connoisseurs, the event is reviewed by about two hundreds of media) and – what is the most important – by stirring up of creative activity of the majority of Ukrainian sculptors who stayed behind the native art-stage during the last fifteen years.
The Great Sculpture Exhibition will be opened from 2 to 14 of March.
Working hours: 11.00 a.m. – 8.00 p.m.
