>From Kyivan Rus’ to Modern Ukraine: Virtual Conversations on History, Art, and Cultural Heritage

Inaugural Lecture by Olenka Z. Pevny: “Lacunae of Art History and Kyiv’s Visual Culture”

Date: April 22, 2022, at 12:00pm Eastern Time (US & Canada) via Zoom

Ukraine’s history, art, and culture are endangered by the ongoing war. This lecture and conversation series by experts in the fields of history, art history, archaeology, heritage, sociology, as well as museums and conservation, among others, presents the region’s rich historical and cultural complexity through its objects, sites, and monuments. A focus on the medieval and early modern periods featuring Greek, Latin, and Slavic contacts, brings to the fore critical evidence to counter modern misrepresentations of Ukraine’s history and cultural heritage. This series is co-organized by Dumbarton Oaks<https://www.doaks.org/research/byzantine/scholarly-activities/kyivan-rus-to-modern-ukraine-home>, North of Byzantium<https://www.northofbyzantium.org/advocacy/>, and Connected Central European Worlds, 1500–1700<https://research.kent.ac.uk/emcentraleu/virtual-conversations/>.

Free and open to the public. Register for the inaugural lecture here<https://www.doaks.org/research/byzantine/scholarly-activities/kyivan-rus-to-modern-ukraine-home/kyiv-visual-culture>.
