On February 28, there was a message on Facebook : « at the residence of former President Yanukovych found 2 trucks full of church valuables : icons and old books . Third hundred self caused museum staff ».

It took almost two months , on the basis of this finding matured project, from April 26 to July 27 would not be available anywhere but directly at the National Art Museum of Ukraine , and take as much as 7 rooms there .
Another nice thing is that oversee «Code Mezhyhirya» took such prominent Ukrainian art sphere, as critic and culture Alice Lozhkina and artist Alexander Roitburd. Last just proposed to build on the basis of exposure - book descriptions that would allow subjects to speak for themselves . With the embodiment of this idea have coped well-known young artists Alexander Burlaka Ivan Melnychuk .

The exhibition at the National Art Museum will feature Mezhigorie found in printed books , sculptures, icons , paintings , crockery, furniture , souvenirs and collectable weapons . Unique works appear on the stage alongside the fakes and outright tastelessness . Company Mezhigorskaya findings amount to no less controversial items from the home of Victor Pshonka . Transferred to temporary storage in the museum, it provoked good employees to present it publicly . "Society must see it and draw their own conclusions ," - they decided. In turn, Alexander Roitburd said : « This flashy bad taste in every sense instructive. If the fourth president of our suffering country was less zhlobsky taste and , God forbid , an office and a modest dacha - look, all zhlobskaya parties, which call themselves the elite , would begin to be measured is not a luxury, decent Gypsy Baron , and modesty and democracy . And there, perhaps, the level of corruption would prisoh and kleptocracy wilted ... Effect style on ethical climate should not be underestimated ».

To be able to extract from the draft lesson during the exhibition is scheduled to meet with artists, art critics , politicians, representatives of power structures , as well as open discussions and other public events .

 Icons, those that are more or less visible in the two photographs - all old , all sorts of forgeries and remakes like not seen .. Icons are not museum-level course, a great Saviour , the most interesting and close to this category , the rest - in silver gift options ( though quite valuable ) and frank " middle peasants " . On the second ( large ) photos , those icons that are located far from filming perhaps most interesting, there are several detailed compositions hagiographic , the Last Judgment , the Word begotten Son of God , the annual Minea etc.

Added after 22 minutes


That's because this flunky Alexander Levin, and stuck a sign .. Although it is not bad if you understand : if all these gifts were plaques with the names of donors , we would know the names of all major lackeys Ukraine. <! - ~ 10 ->

Three icons of Our Lady of Mount Athos 90s of the 19th century , is not uncommon . Left festive candy Virgin species concentration. 19 - early. 20th century ( not excluded lithography) . Above left Kazan 19th century , nothing good can not say . Top center hangs a great Christmas , 18th century , and possibly older, this icon can be interesting and collectible , but not on such a picture to judge.
