Prominent Ukrainian Singer From Brazil la Maciuk, a renowned Ukrain ian singer from Brazil, has re cently arrived in the United States to tour the major cities with her concerts. Toward the close of September she visited the Central Office of UNWLA to whom she has brought greetings and best wishes from the Ukrain ian womanhood of Brazil. At the meeting with the Executive Corn- Special exhibits by women ar tists have already become a fre quent occurence in the western cultural centers. These are spon sored by associations of artists or by patrons of art. However, here the exposition was promoted and supported by a women’s organi zation which wished thus to ex press esteem and understanding for the work and efforts of Uk rainian women artists. Branch 64 of the Ukrainian Na tional Women’s League in New York prepared an exhibition of women’s fine arts in its spacious office. It assembled works of pic torial and plastic arts as well as pieces of applied art. Beside the mittee of UNWLA she related her attainments in the art of music as well as her plans for the time to come. The artist began her musical studies at Lviv, West Ukraine, and completed them in Vienna. Along with Lubomir Maciuk, her husband, a fine tenor, she emi grated to Brazil in 1948. They both began their artistic career displays of living artists there were also some canvases of de ceased painters. A separate wall was occupied by the girl students of fine arts. The artists engaged in ceramics and making dolls, also presented many items. Before the opening of the ex position the Branch prepared a reception for artists and art crit ics, so that they may get mutual ly acquainted. The evening pass ed in most friendly atmosphere. The exhibition, which was open to the public for a week, drew a large number of visitors. It was marked with distinction by the Ukrainian press. with a concert at Curitiba, Pa rana. The President of the local Musical Society, who attended the concert, asked them to give another special concert, follow ing which the couple embarked on a number of concerts in vari ous cities of the country. Later on the Department of Culture ar ranged their concert in Munici pal Theatre at Rio de Janeiro. This was in 1951 since when their standing in the artistic world of Brazil has firmly been establish ed. Lubomir Maciuk is teaching singing in the State Conservatory at Curitiba, capital of the pro vince of Parana, a city of more than 300,000 inhabitants while la Maciuk is singing under contract on tbe radio and television at Sao Paulo. The couple is constantly preparing new repertory and is presenting their concerts every year in major cities of the coun try. In January, 1957, they were in vited by the Ukrainian commun ity of Buenos Aires, Argentina, to give a concert in this city. However, they had to present 4 concerts, since every time the hall was filled to capacity. The press of the city noted the con certs with distinction and the young pair left greatly inspired. Now la Maciuk came to the United States alone to get ac quainted with Ukrainian com munities and American musical realm. Soon we shall have the opportunity to hear our artist from South America.
