On the occasion of the 78th anniversary of the Korsun-Shevchenkivska offensive operation, the exhibition “War and Art: Drawings of Frontline Artists of the Second World War” was opened at the Museum of the History of the Korsun-Shevchenkivska Battle.
\nThe exhibition presents 26 drawings by frontline artists, mostly participants in the operation. In between battles, they painted the surrounding landscapes, battlefields, but most attention was paid to portraits of fellow soldiers. Made in pencil, charcoal, sometimes watercolor, often on pieces of paper or on the back of official forms, the works preserve the memory of the brutal battle, the soldiers who died for Ukrainian land, and those who liberated it from the Nazis and survived. Most of the drawings were created in 1944.
\nThe exhibition features works by Honored Artist of Ukraine Mykola Slipchenko, Dmytro Babkov, Mykola Bilan, Volodymyr Huzy, Ivan Yevstigneyev, Anatoliy Kalyanov, Fedor Oktyabrsky, Mykola Rodin, and Arkadiy Savelyev.
\nThe author of the exhibition is TetyanaPolyakova, head of the Museum of the History of the Korsun-Shevchenkivska Battle.
\nThe exhibition will run until April 15.
