5/10/2007 JAQUES HNIZDOVSKY EXHIBIT AND SALE

Jacques Hnizdovsky is arguably the most recognized Ukrainian artist in the world today, not only because his works are in hundreds, if not thousands of private collections, art museums and galleries, but also because his distinctive style of wood cuts and etchings is instantly recognizable.  Modeling his art on Japanese woodcuts and those of the great German master, Albrecht Durer, Hnizdovsky developed a style that is all his own, characterized by clarity, intricacy, great beauty and on occasion, humor.  Born in Ukraine , Hnizdovsky studied art in Warsaw and Zagreb before settling in the United States where he launched a distinguished career as an artist, producing hundreds of wood cuts and a good many oil paintings.

The Ukrainian Museum-Archives, working in cooperation with the Cleveland Chapter of the Ukrainian Women’s League of North America, is pleased to sponsor an exhibit and sale of Jacques Hnizdovsky prints that are being made available by the Estate of the great Master.  This will be the first such event in Ohio featuring the works of Mr. Hnizdovsky in a generation.  Hours of the exhibit are:
