A Rare Anniversary An a rtist’s anniversary is al ways touching because the years of his life are filled w ith stru g gle. S tirring indeed is the news of the 50th anniversary of the artistic work of K atherine An tonovich, an U krainian woman painter, now living in Winnipeg, Canada. K atherine Antonovich, is today the senior among Uk rainian women painters. Born in K harkiv, she studied a rt in Kiev. Having m arried the Ukrainian scholar Dm ytro A n tonovich, she shared his troub led life. D uring the sojourn of the family, in various capitals in Europe, she continued her stu dies. Her paintings were hung in different exhibitions; and she also illustrated magazines and books for children. Since 1949 she has lived in Canada. In 1954 she opened a studio for talented children in Winnipeg, where she teaches them drawing and painting. Sev- From exhibition of K. Antonovich’s paintings in Winnipeg: Portrait of Olga Franko eral talented artists have em erg ed from her school; and they are grateful for her guidance. So be loved is she by her pupils, and admired by the community th a t they celebrated her 50th anni versary by a public exhibition of her paintings, which included m any portraits, landscapes, illus trations and drawings. Portrait of Maria Mirchuk K atherine Antonovich can be proud to have reached her 50th anniversary still in full activity of a practicing artist, as well as being head of her a rt school, where she teaches and inspires young talents. A TALENTED DANCER Roma Prym a is well known in U krainian communities of the United States. She has perform ed in several cities, and embo died in her dances m any U krain ian songs and figures. Step by step she created a rich repertoire of her own. N ot long ago she pre sented it to audiences in London and Paris. To everyone’s surprise and de light this young, unknown danc er conquered th e two cities. Cri tics were much impressed and unanimous in th eir recognition of the sincerity of her creation, the perfect technique of her dance, the wide variety of her them es, and m ost particularly her talent as a character dancer. Being a native of Ukraine, she feels best in the dances of her homeland. One of her dances m ost often mentioned was “Icons.” Miss Prym a acquired the idea for this while touring Turkey and Greece. The splendid icons of the Byzantine churches th a t once inspired U krainian painters now fired the im agination of th e young a rtis t; and she answered th e call. The dance links a series of formalized poses assumed through an intricate costume, de signed for this purpose. In th e imm ediate fu tu re Miss Prym a plans a tour of American cities. The U krainian communi ties will be glad to greet th eir favorite dancer. And OUR LIFE, in acknowledgement of her suc cess granted her the name of “The Best Young Talent in 1960.” SUCCESS OF A WOMAN DOCTOR Dr. Tetiana Terlecka comes from W est U kraine and studied at the fam ous U niversity of Vi enna in A ustria where she grad uated w ith a doctorate in medi cine during the Second World W ar.
