НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ • Березень-Квітень 2025 15 catalogue is an important publication in its own right because it provides information that had been suppressed for decades by the Soviet regime — in - formation that started to come to light only after the breakup of the Soviet Union. The catalogue was reprinted in Ukraine by the journal Пам’ятки України (Pamiatky Ukrainy) in a huge run. From the Museum’s earliest years, many of its exhibitions, following their Museum run, trav- eled to other museums and institutions; these in - clude Masterpieces in Wood: Houses of Worship in Ukraine, also curated by Titus Hewryk, and To Preserve a Heritage: The Story of Ukrainian Im- migration in the United States, curated by Myron Kuropas. The latter was exhibited at 11 U.S. ven- ues, among them the Harrisburg, PA Rotunda of the State Capital and the Rensselaer County Coun - cil on the Arts in Troy, NY. It also toured Ukraine under the auspices of the Embassy of the United States. The success of the Museum’s exhibitions was also due to their beautiful designs, created by Zenon Feszczak, a designer at the Port of History Museum in Philadelphia, who worked with the Mu- seum until his death in 1992. As the Museum’s reputation grew, its collections expanded through generous donations to also in - clude fine arts and archival items. The fine arts collection encompasses paintings, works on paper, and sculptures by Ukrainian artists who worked in Ukraine, Europe, and the United States. In the collection are works by such renowned artists as Alexander Archipenko, Mykhailo Chereshnovsky, Oleksa Hryshchenko (Alexis Gritchenko), Jacques Hnizdovsky, Vasyl H. Krychevsky, Mychajlo Moroz, Arcadia Olenska Petryshyn, and the naive artist Nikifor, to name just a few. The archival collection includes thousands of photographs documenting the life of Ukrainian communities in North America, as well as the per - sonal correspondence of noted Ukrainians, pro- grams of events, playbills, posters, exclusive chron - icles of organizations and individuals, Ukrainian currency, stamps, ex libris, and rare books. While a great deal had been achieved in the small premises of the brownstone building on Sec- ond Avenue, it became obvious that the Museum could not grow to its full potential in that location.
