Ludina Baroko: phoenix/freak

About the Event

We invite you to spend the evening among the art of the Ukrainian Baroque and join the exciting intellectual dialogue.
Hryhoriy Skovoroda and Kyrylo Razumovsky — are two extraordinary figures, two different worlds of the same era. 
What brought these people together? How did they understand freedom, happiness, power and their own place in the world? And what do their destinies tell us about the Ukrainian Baroque?
At the «FIREWORKS» exhibition, Bohdan Tikholoz and Maryana Studnytska will talk about bright personalities, passions, contradictions and paradoxes of the era.
At the heart of the debate:
• Who lit the fireworks of Hetman Ukraine?
• «Cheerful heart» Ukrainian Baroque
• The world caught them. Who did you catch?
• In bed with the empire. Love with the empire
• Between the fireworks and the divine garden
• Female face of Hetman Ukraine
• Art as a mythmaker

Speakers:
Bohdan Tykholoz — literary critic, director of the House of Franko, candidate of philological sciences, honored worker of culture of Ukraine.
Maryana Studnytska — Candidate of Art History, Associate Professor of the Department of History and Theory of Art of the Lviv National Academy of Arts 
It will not be a lecture, but a live dialogue about two people who embodied the spirit of Ukrainian Baroque in different ways — between the philosophy of freedom and the art of power.
