The Ukrainian Museum New York is pleased to announce the inaugural solo exhibition of Vladimir Tatlin鈥檚 work in North America, entitled Tatlin: Kyiv. 

Vladimir Tatlin (Ukrainian: Volodymyr), the prominent avant-garde artist and founder of Constructivism, was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, and lived and worked in Kyiv from 1925 until 1927. This pioneering exhibition will recreate the artist鈥檚 Kyiv studio and chronicle the work made during this period within the museum space, depicting the actual environment in which his art was conceived and created for the very first time. Tatlin: Kyiv will serve as an educational catalyst for the decolonization of Ukrainian art through the lens of Tatlin鈥檚 work, contributing to the preservation of Ukrainian history and cultural discourse.  

Tatlin鈥檚 illustration and design work with local Kyiv journals, book publishers, and theatre productions will also be highlighted for the first time. Additionally, the work of artists who studied under Tatlin at the Kyiv Institute of Art, where he taught a multi-disciplinary class that combined sculpture, film, and photography, will be on show. Tatlin: Kyiv will reexamine a major gap in the discourse of art history to include Tatlin鈥檚 work of the late 1920s.
