They were created by famous Ukrainian painter Anatoliy Kryvolap in cooperation with his colleague Ihor Stupachenko.

Church icon exhibition in Kiev

Artists have been working for more than four years to create these works. Ihor Stupachenko devised new technologies, created traditional compositions, preparing a series of scenes for visual filling of the temple. Anatoliy Kryvolap assumed responsibility for emotional content and color decisions, for the modern look and reaction to the old testaments in the church built in the XXI century.

 

This exhibition is really unique, because visitors will be able to see the originals of the paintings that will be mounted in the church building after the exhibition. The new temple was erected in the ancient village of Lypivka, located not far from Kyiv, on the site of the Church of the Intercession, destroyed by Soviet authorities, at the patronage of Bohdan Batruk.
