The Mykola Babak Foundation has received a grant from the Canada-Ukraine Foundation and Aid for Artists to implement the project “Kereliv Photographer: The Legacy of Hryhoriy Shevchenko”!
As part of this project, we will work on creating:
📖 a book mockup about Hryhoriy Shevchenko — a Ukrainian photographer, great-nephew of Taras Shevchenko;
🌐 a virtual exhibition that will present unique visual and documentary materials about the photographer’s work and his contribution to national culture.
This project is another step towards preserving and popularizing little-known names in Ukrainian culture, as well as a worthy representation of our heritage in the world.
Thank you to the Canada-Ukraine Foundation and Aid for Artists for your trust and support!
Stay tuned — we will show the first results soon.
