Colors, Hope, and Ukrainian Folk Art at vhs Erlangen
The exhibition Ukrainian Folk Art: Petrykivka Painting – The Soul at the Tip of the Brush invites you to a remarkable encounter with a traditional decorative painting. At vhs Erlangen, an art experience unfolds that uniquely combines craftsmanship, cultural identity, and aesthetic experience.
Vibrant Ornaments as Living Cultural Heritage
Petrykivka painting is known for its vibrant colors, floral motifs, and intricate ornaments. As an intangible UNESCO cultural heritage, it represents an art form where observation of nature, symbolism, and decorative precision come together. The imagery works directly: Flowers, berries, leaves, and curved lines open up a space full of movement and lightness.
Works by Tetiana Liudvychenko
The exhibition features works by artist Tetiana Liudvychenko from Brovary, along with selected pieces from her workshops. This not only makes the art itself visible but also showcases the creative process behind the creation of the works. The exhibition vividly conveys how cultural traditions are passed on, reinterpreted, and carried into the present.
A Cultural Dialogue between Ukraine and Germany
The presentation was created in cooperation with the Office for Equal Opportunities and Diversity / International Relations and the volunteer initiative Spilnota. Especially in the present time, this exhibition resonates strongly: It makes cultural heritage visible, strengthens exchange, and sets a sign for hope, connection, and respect. For visitors, an exhibition with high educational value and clear social relevance opens up.
