Path of Resistance is a pop-up exhibition and a silent auction featuring a selection of fine art pieces by contemporary Ukrainian artists that celebrate creative authenticity and share with the audience their vision of beauty, hope, freedom, and love.

A few fine art images can be seen here: https://www.art-territory.com/gallery/

All proceeds go to buying equipment for a new Children’s Hospital in Lviv, Ukraine and to support the Ukrainian artists who have become refugees after the war broke out.

Ukraine is a country of striking natural beauty and of truly beautiful people. Today, when Ukraine is devastated by war, its once beautiful landscapes are maimed by the bombs and the rockets, but the beauty of its people is heightened by their inner strength, their continuous support of one another, their never-ending willingness to resist, and their ability to see beauty even in the darkest hour.

Together with their countrymen, Ukrainian artists chose to overcome the horrors of combat by creating canvases that depict beauty rather than dread. This is their “Art of war”, their path of resistance – the artworks that celebrate life in a time of terrible peril.

This exhibition features 30+ works by contemporary Ukrainian artists and creatives who continue to fight back by choosing life and beauty and showing us wondrous images of the world that could be, and not the one disfigured by the war. The world needs love, now more than ever. The world needs beauty and the world needs Ukrainian art.
