Ukrainian Modern in Architecture. The Style of Hutsul Secession
In art history, the period between the 19th and the 20th century is known as the Modern art era (also called Art Nouveau, Liberty, Tiffany, Secession). In Ukrainian history, this era is known as the beginning of the national and cultural renaissance, aiming for the independence of Ukrainian land and culture from both the Russian and the Austro-Hungarian empires, between which it was divided at that moment.

In 1909, amidst the flourishing European Avant-Garde, Ukrainian painter Mykhailo Boychuk opened his studio in Paris to teach Byzantine iconography techniques. He was passionate about restoring the concept of the collective craft and making art accessible to every one by bringing it from galleries into daily life.
Ukraine in Color — from Naïve to Art Brut
The desire to create is inherent not only in professional artists but also in people who have never heard of art education or the existence of galleries. Over the past 150 years, artists have been constantly returning to primitive art in search of inspiration and identity. The division of art into professional and non-professional is rather artificial in its essence.
