A BLAZE OF COLOUR: Folk Art and Apparel

Until November 23, 2010

Oseredok Ukrainian Cultural and Educational Centre, Gallery

From the Collections

Each region, each village in Ukraine has its own particular folk legacy. It was this regional and local legacy that the early Ukrainian settlers brought with them to Canada. For the discerning eye, there were clues that spoke to who you were and where you came from. It may have been the cut and ornamentation of the shirt, the colours and method of embroidery on it, the shape and pattern of the skirt, the design and decoration of a sheepskin coat or vest, or the richness or paucity of decoration.

This exhibition will provide some insight into the apparel and folk art of eight ethnographic regions of Ukraine. Retrieved from the ethnography collection of the Centre, these artifacts bring to light the innate sense of beauty, design and composition possessed by their creators, no matter how modest their origins.

184 Alexander Ave. East, Winnipeg

Open Monday through Saturday 10am – 4pm, Sunday (July and August) 1 – 4pm

DMYTRO STRYJEK (1899 – 1991) WORKS

Until September 30, 2010

From the Collections

The colourful primitive art of self-taught artist Dmytro Stryjek attracted the attention of the Canadian mainstream art world in the 1980s. Born in Lanivtsi, Western Ukraine, Stryjek served in the Ukrainian Armed Forces in 1919 where he was recruited to intelligence work, observing people and sketching his observations. In 1923 he moved to Canada where he pursued a life of a farmer and then worked for the CN. He began painting in Saskatoon after his retirement in 1965. He painted portraits of famous people, historical subjects, religious paintings akin to icons, and some landscapes. His sources often included calendars, postcards and magazines. Styjek's art projects a kind of naive innocence about art technique, but at the same  time his unusual portrayals provide an insight into his particular world view as well as his opinion about important personages and events.
