Fine Art / Folk Art: A Dialogue examines the profound influence of Ukrainian folk art on the fine art created by some of Ukraine's best known and highly regarded artists. The exhibition – the first to draw on the Museum's fine art and folk art collections simultaneously – includes 70 paintings, sculptures, watercolors, and woodcuts by such prominent artists as Alexander Archipenko, Jacques Hnizdovsky, Oleksa Hryshchenko (Alexis Gritchenko), Vasyl H. Krychevsky, and Oleksa Novakivsky, along with a selection of folk art items: embroidered shirts, plakhty (wraparound skirts), complete folk costumes, a traditional headdress, a kilim, and an assortment of ceramic and carved-wood pieces and pysanky (Ukrainian Easter eggs).
