Ukrainian Exhibition on View

“Between War and Nostalgia: A Ukrainian Trajectory” is a group exhibition that considers and reflects on Ukraine’s recent history and its emergence as a post-Soviet nation while grappling with invasion and war. The artists in the exhibit stare directly at Russia’s assaults on their homeland and the ravages it has wreaked on their communities, psyche and property while articulating their relationship to their homeland through memory, family and return. Collectively, the artists construct a vision of Ukrainian resilience and defiance.

“Between War and Nostalgia: A Ukrainian Trajectory” will be on view through March 9, 2025 at ReflectSpace Gallery, inside Glendale Central Library, 222 E. Harvard St. in Glendale. An artist reception will be held on Saturday, Jan. 4, from 6:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
