The September sun still remembers the past glory, but it warms in a different way. It often rains, and especially in Lviv. There is a lack of bright colors outside the window (okay, some other than gold). To cheer you up, we offer five exciting exhibitions in September in Lviv.
Exhibition of sculptures by Mykhailo Dzyndra "In the open space"
An interesting exhibition of the outstanding Ukrainian emigrant sculptor Ivan Dzyndra will take place in the courtyard of the Potocki Palace in September. The artist offers exhibits in the Art Nouveau style, dedicating the exhibition to the 30th anniversary of Ukraine's independence and his return to homeland after 47 years of emigration to the United States. Therefore, this is a good opportunity for all who want to get acquainted with the origins of the expression of Ukrainian immigrant culture in North America.
Exhibition for visitors who love abstract works of art and are interested in the activities of the Ukrainian diaspora abroad.

Exhibition by Peter Humeniuk "Shadow Guard"
Peter Humeniuk's exhibition "Shadow of the Guardian" is full of mystery and the spirit of the afterlife. A visit to the Lozynsky Palace will be remembered by a combination of the real and the fantastic, there you can feel yourself between several worlds - material and spiritual. The artist's paintings will make you feel much more than you see. After all, the shadow is both our ordinary routine and a mysterious friend who constantly haunts a person throughout life and can tell much more than our friends. This is a chance to feel yourself in a mysterious and, at the same time, fascinating atmosphere.
