We invite you to the preview of the exhibition from December 12, 2025, to January 7, 2026, and to the grand opening on January 8 at 5 p.m.!

The exhibition aims to refute the stereotype that Ukraine has only recently begun to forge its path to Europe. The KhRAM collection demonstrates that as early as the 19th and 20th centuries, Ukrainian artists not only studied abroad but also enriched the culture of the European continent and the world as a whole. Their artistic explorations and innovations led to revolutionary discoveries in the field of fine arts.

Studying abroad allowed Ukrainian artists to directly absorb the experience of local artists and become familiar with progressive movements such as Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Cubism, Fauvism, Futurism, and Dadaism. Upon returning to Ukraine, they applied the knowledge they had gained in their artistic practices, creating unique personal styles that combined European innovations with Ukrainian heritage and local characteristics. European culture was a powerful source of inspiration and a professional foundation for many artists, leading to the creation of new, original works.

Among the exhibited works are masterpieces from the KhRAM collection by Volodymyr Orlovskyi, Oleksandr Murashko, Mykola Burachek, Serhii Vasylkivskyi, Fedir Manailo, Leopold Levytskyi, Roman Selskyi, Yosyp Bokshai, Olena Kulchytska, and others.
