Affirmation of Life: Art from Today’s Ukraine
January 31-February 25
Reception: 3-5pm, Saturday, February 3
Fundraiser: 6-8pm, Wednesday, February 21st
This February, enjoy Affirmation of Life: Art from Today’s Ukraine, presented at the Loading Dock Gallery in cooperation with the Ukrainian Cultural Initiative.
This colorful show celebrates life as well as Ukrainian heritage, with work ranging from traditional designs to lush abstracts. Working in war-ravaged Ukraine, the artists seek not only to make a living, but to teach and support adults and children, providing much needed healing through the universal language of art. “Art is like oxygen,” says artist Lyubov Minenko. “It makes everyone feel comfortable. Comfortable in the individual existence and comfortable in communication with others. Art unites people.”
