This winter, we are excited to showcase Koliada: Ukrainian Winter Festive Art from the SVI Collection, a celebration of Ukrainian culture through art. The SVI art collection has grown over six decades, collected as gifts from the artists, donations, and purchases, and now features a range of paintings, prints, and sculptures that reflect Ukrainian life, traditions, and the natural world.
This special exhibit highlights the festive spirit of Ukrainian winter traditions, showcasing works by renowned artists such as Yaroslawa Surmach and Vladimir Strelnikov, alongside traditional crafts that embody the warmth, beauty, and joy of the season.
Koliada invites you to experience the enduring legacy of Ukrainian festive traditions through the lens of visual art.
