On September 27 at 3:00 PM, we invite you to a concert in Lutsk — “Musical Diplomacy of Ukraine. One Year — 20 Countries, 4 Continents,” performed by pianist, scholar, and ethnomusicologist Taras Filenko.

This will be more than just a concert at Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art. It will be an artistic journey through centuries of Ukrainian musical culture — from Baroque and Romanticism to modern explorations and contemporary interpretations of our musical heritage.

The programme will feature works by Dmytro Bortnianskyi, Mykola Lysenko, Yakiv Stepovyi, Lev Revutskyi, Fedir Yakymenko, Viktor Stepurko, Myroslav Skoryk, and others.

Taras Filenko is a renowned Ukrainian musicologist, ethnomusicologist, educator, and performer. For more than forty years, he has worked in the fields of music history, ethnomusicology, and musical performance, combining research, teaching, and concert activities. As a pianist, organist, and choral conductor, Taras Filenko has performed across Europe and North America, consistently promoting Ukrainian musical heritage and the works of contemporary Ukrainian composers.

Since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Taras Filenko has held benefit concerts and lectures, introducing Ukrainian culture to international audiences and raising funds for humanitarian aid to Ukraine. Ukrainian music performed by Filenko has been heard at concert and academic venues in New York, Pittsburgh, Florida, North and South Carolina, at Duke University and UNC Chapel Hill, as well as at diplomatic missions in the United States, India, and Indonesia.

Admission — pay-what-you-wish donation in support of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with funds raised for tactical backpacks for military medics.

We thank Tetiana Mialkovska for initiating and supporting the organization of the concert in Lutsk!

On September 25 at 5:00 PM, we invite you to Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art for a special guided tour of the exhibition project “THE COLLECTOR’S CODE.” This time, your guide will be the collector himself — Roman Yermolenko.

“THE COLLECTOR’S CODE” presents a private collection shaped not by the rules of the art market, but by personal choice, emotion, and a deep inner connection with art. The exhibition features works by Ukrainian artists of different generations, from 20th-century masters to contemporary artists.

But behind every acquired artwork, there is another story: Why this particular piece? What made it stand out? How did it become part of the collection? What does it mean to its owner today?

On September 25, we will hear these stories firsthand. We will talk not only about the artists and their works, but also about the personal “code” of someone who has been collecting art for many years, guided above all by his own intuition and response to art.

The exhibition closes on September 27, so this is a great opportunity to see it in its final days and discover it from an entirely different perspective — together with the collector.

September 25, 5:00 PM
Admission to the tour is included with the museum admission ticket.

Forum “The Art of Teaching”
Practical STEM seminar “Learning Through Inquiry”

On September 30 at 5:00 PM, the large-scale exhibition project “Universe Inside Out” by Alina Haieva will open at Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art as part of the ENTER Youth Art Platform.

The project is a visual map of human memory, where different eras, cultural codes, and artistic references come together. The boundaries between past and future, sacred and everyday, reality and imagination become blurred.

The central figures — Adam and Eve — appear outside their traditional biblical context. Adam represents a human being shaped by labour and art, while Eve, borrowed from Hieronymus Bosch’s triptych, carries the knowledge of sin, death, and loss. Around them unfolds a multilayered world of imagery that brings together art history, Ukrainian cultural heritage, and the artist’s personal symbolism.

“Universe Inside Out” invites us to see the human being as a living archive of culture. Every encounter, every book we read, every artistic image, historical event, and personal experience leaves its mark, continuously shaping our identity.

Alina Haieva is an artist, illustrator, and tattoo artist. In her practice, she explores Ukrainian cultural heritage and considers the human being an inseparable part of their environment and of an endless process of creation.

On August 12 at 5:00 PM, Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art will open “RUSHNYK. BODY,” a solo exhibition project by artist Olena Konohorova.

In her new project, the artist reinterprets one of the most powerful symbols of Ukrainian culture — the rushnyk, a traditional embroidered ritual cloth. Combining the traditional art of paper cutting (vytynanka) with metal, she creates works that speak about memory, the human body, fragility, and resilience.

“RUSHNYK. BODY” is an exhibition about the traces left by experience. About a body that remembers. About a tradition that continues to live, taking on new forms.

The exhibition brings together works by Ukrainian artists of different generations — from twentieth-century masters to contemporary authors. It is a story not only about artworks, but also about the person who collected them over many years, guided not by status or investment value, but by a sincere emotional response.

Each work has its own story, and together they form a coherent portrait of a collector for whom art has become a way of understanding and experiencing the world.

On July 24, the Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art will open the large-scale exhibition project “Quo Vadis?” by Ukrainian nonconformist artists Serhii Druziaka and Serhii Lytvynov.

This exhibition raises one of the most important questions of our time: Quo Vadis? — Where are you going? It is a question addressed not only to humanity as a whole, but to each of us individually.

For more than three decades, Serhii Druziaka and Serhii Lytvynov have worked as a creative duo, exploring memory, human vulnerability, responsibility, and the choices that shape the future of civilization. Their project brings together monumental paintings, watercolors, and a philosophical reflection on events that have changed the world.

The exhibition addresses the Chernobyl disaster, the Fukushima nuclear accident, the September 11 terrorist attacks, Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine, and other events that compel us to rethink the fragility of human life and our responsibility for the future. At the same time, it leaves room for hope through the series “Faith. Hope. Love.”, which speaks of the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility of renewal.

“Quo Vadis?” will be presented on the third floor of the Korsaks’ Museum of Contemporary Ukrainian Art and will be one of the museum’s largest exhibitions of the season.

Opening: July 24, 5:00 PM

The project is a visual diary of a year.
365 drawings — 365 days observed, experienced, and documented by the artist throughout 2025.

His works have become an integral part of Kharkiv’s urban landscape, while his distinctive black-and-white visual language and concise observations have made his art recognizable far beyond Ukraine.
