‘In the Eye of the Storm’ presents the groundbreaking art produced in what is now Ukraine in the early 20th century – at a time when the country did not exist as the independent state it had previously been and is again today. The book accompanies an exhibition tracing the artistic developments between 1900 and the mid-1930s, focusing on three key regional centres – Kharkiv, Kyiv and Odesa – against a complicated socio-political backdrop of collapsing empires, World War I, the Revolution with the ensuing civil war, and the creation of Soviet Ukraine.
