Join artists Leon Hushcha and Olga Volchkova at The Museum of Russian Art in Minneapolis for the highly-anticipated opening reception of their new exhibitions. This special event offers a unique opportunity to be among the first to view the stunning artworks of these talented artists. 

Leon Hushcha's exhibition, titled "The Art of Leon Hushcha: The Way," showcases his latest paintings and takes viewers on a captivating journey through his cosmic realm of creativity. Hushcha's works explore themes of displacement and disruption, expressing his deep connection to his ancestral land, Ukraine. Through his art, he voices his protest against Russia's intrusion into Ukraine's sovereign territory. With a background rooted in Ukrainian culture and a Master of Fine Arts degree, Hushcha's art has gained recognition both nationally and internationally. 

Olga Volchkova's exhibition, "Nature's Saints: Icons by Olga Volchkova," presents a unique take on the traditional style of Eastern Orthodox icon-painting. Volchkova's icons depict fruits, vegetables, herbs, and other plants as divine beings, paying homage to their crucial role in safeguarding life on Earth. Trained in religious icon conservation in her homeland of Russia, Volchkova brings her own innovative techniques to her artwork, using plant-based materials such as gelatin, chalk, garlic juice, and honey. 

The opening reception will feature open viewing of all galleries, live music, and insightful remarks from the artists, as well as the Curator and Executive Director.
