Del

Let’s learn more about Kazymyr Malevych – one of the key figures in avant-garde art. Ukraine House in Denmark invites you to the lecture “Who Really was the Inventor of the Black Square?” by Tetyana Filevska, Ukrainian cultural manager, curator, art historian, co-founder and director of the Malevych Institute in Kyiv and author of the book “Kazymyr Malevych: Kyiv Period 1928-1930”.

Kazymyr Malevych (1879-1921) was born in Kyiv and lived in Ukraine until he turned 17. Malevych received his first education and created his first artworks in Ukraine. His life has been researched in detail and dozens of books about him are published every year all over the globe. However, there are still lagoons to be filled and mysteries to be solved. Like the one of his birth house in Kyiv, his identity or unknown facts about his work as a professor.

During the lecture Tetyana Filevska will share the most interesting facts, unknown details and unexpected twists of Kazymyr Malevych life journey helping us to recognize the context and his impact on Ukrainian and global culture. Children will have a chance to experiment with their own collage creations in the avant-garde genre, supervised by the Ukraine House coordinators.

On May 25, Ukraine House in Denmark hosted a special edition of its series “Taste of Ukraine”, dedicated to the Crimean Tatar people—their history, their struggle, and their resilient identity. The event took place in the shadow of May 18 which marks the deportation of Crimean Tatars by the Soviet regime in 1944, a historical trauma that continues to shape the destiny and identity of Ukraine’s indigenous people.
