On June 10 at 5:00 PM, the Korsaks’ Museum of Ukrainian Contemporary Art will host the opening of “Plan for Today” — a project by Ivanna Oliinyk.

The project reflects on growth through trauma.
On strength born despite circumstances.
On memory, responsibility, and the choice to keep moving forward.

In her artistic practice, Ivanna Oliinyk explores themes of corporeality, loss, transformation, and memory, combining sculptural expressiveness with elements of contemporary archaic aesthetics.

On May 20, the youth art platform ENTER at the Korsaks‘ Museum opens a new project by Kharkiv graffiti artist Louisa Chipa — “A State That Shapes Space”!

The exhibition is a visual story about a person’s inner state and their ability to change the reality around them. Through a bright comic-style language, familiar urban landscapes, and vivid colors, the artist speaks about personal responsibility, transformation, and the power of action even in times of instability.

The works presented in the project were shaped by the experience of living in wartime. However, instead of directly reflecting on traumatic events, the artist turns to the theme of inner strength, creativity, and the human ability to transform the surrounding space, filling it with new meanings and life.

We invite you to join us! Admission is free!

Violence of one person against another, of one state against another, is not accidental — it is a process.

With the development of humanity, it has only become more refined and more brutal.

Today, we are witnessing its most radical form — royal hunt.

A space where crude, wild force erases depth and spirituality.

Where violence is inflicted not only on the body, but on one’s very essence.

This exhibition is about the pressure from which resistance is born.

About boundaries that constrain, yet at the same time set free.

Free admission to the opening

The project will run until May 25, 2026

April 3 at 5:00 PM, the Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art will open the exhibition project “Kyiv Island.”

The exhibition is dedicated to the phenomenon of the “Squat on Olehivska” — a unique association of artists that emerged in the early 1990s and became an important part of the New Ukrainian Wave.

This exhibition is about an environment that became a territory of freedom. About artists who managed to preserve painting as a space of strength, play, paradox, and inner independence. About art that outlived time and silence, and returned with new energy.

The exhibition features works by:
Anatolii Varvarov, Volodymyr Yershikhin, Ihor Konovalov, Serhii Korniievskyi, Ruslan Kutniak, Ed Potapenkov, Volodymyr Padun, Liudmyla Rozdobudko-Padun, Kostiantyn Militynskyi, Volodymyr Zaichenko, Viacheslav Mashnytskyi.

February 21 at 3:00 PM, the Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art will open the exhibition

“THE ROAD TO EMMAUS. 15 YEARS OF ICONART”

Iconart brings together more than 60 artists, around 200 exhibition projects in Ukraine and abroad, and 15 years of dedicated work with contemporary sacred art.

This exhibition is both a retrospective and a living reflection on the journey—from the first steps to today’s phenomenon of the Ukrainian icon.

Images from different years, styles, and visual languages—from traditional to deeply personal—form a conversation about faith and doubt, suffering and love, loss and hope.

It is a road that cannot be traveled quickly. But it is worth taking.

You are welcome.

The opening of the exhibition “People-Cats” by French artist Caroline Dahyot will take place as part of the multi-space project “The Other Next Door” at the Korsaks Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art.

Caroline Dahyot is a French artist who works with textiles, installations, and objects.

Her works have been exhibited in France, Belgium, Canada, and the United States, including at the Outsider Art Fair in New York and the Art et Marges Museum in Brussels, and are included in museum and public collections.

In the project “People-Cats,” the artist addresses events in Ukraine and Lebanon, reflecting on the tragedies of the modern world as a shared experience. Through images of human-animals, she speaks of empathy, vulnerability, and responsibility that unite all living beings. The phrase “it could have been us” becomes the key to understanding the exhibition.

A separate part of the exhibition is a duet created in collaboration with ceramicist Nadia La Ganza — an artistic correspondence between a Ukrainian and a French artist that transforms art into a space for dialogue and mutual support.

On 12 December 2025 at 5:00 PM, the Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art will host the opening of the multi-venue project “Інший поруч” (“The Other Nearby”).

The project will run from 12 December to 20 February.

“Інший поруч” will encompass six locations in Lutsk:

• Korsaks’ Museum

• Lutsk Art Museum

• Volyn Regional Museum of Local History

• Okolnyi Castle

• Art space “Dim na Halshky” (“House on Halshka”)

• Industrial space “Budynok Ofitseriv” (“Officers’ House”).

The “Інший поруч” project began on 15 June 2025 with an Open Call for artists from all over the world. As a result, we selected over 200 artists who created contemporary interpretations of the coexistence of humans and animals — as two equal beings, capable of presence, connection, and respect.

The project will be accompanied by a rich parallel programme.

This event will open a new artistic route in the city and invite visitors to take a broader look at reciprocity, presence, and co-being with the “Other”.

The museum is pet friendly, so we will be happy to welcome visitors together with your beloved animal companions

The project is supported by the Lutsk City Council.

Ieva Cāruka works with painting, textiles, and ceramics, combining modernist forms, expressive lines, and bold colors. At the center of her new works is the woman as a bearer of strength, memory, and the genetic code of a nation.

The exhibition features large-format mixed-media works, a series of ceramic “Vases” and “Kalevala” miniatures, as well as selected pieces from the 1980s–1990s that reflect the artist’s early development.

It is a conversation about corporeality, love, inner light, and the resilience of the woman who holds the world.

Admission is free. You are welcome to join!

On October 31 at 5:00 PM, the Korsaks’ Museum of Ukrainian Contemporary Art will host the opening of the exhibition project @ms.chestnut.art MS. CHESTNUT “Fragile Safety” as part of the youth art platform “ENTER.” 

This artistic project, created in the style of stained glass, is a profound and moving story about the heroic work of soldiers and volunteers in the combat zone who rescue animals. Against the backdrop of a blue sky, each painting serves as a unique window into these stories — filled with symbolism and emotion.

The choice of the stained glass style highlights the idea of light and hope penetrating the darkness of war, where every piece becomes a reflection of the inner struggle and the triumph of good. These stained glass works open worlds of compassion and humanity to the viewer, reminding us that even in the darkest times, there is always room for love, friendship, safety, and care.

Viktoriia Kalashnyk (Donetsk–Kyiv) and the museum team invite you to the event!
