A Breeze Blowing through the Birch Forest: The Art of Eastern Europe
by Metra Lin
2012

Introduction

O great land, today you plant a single wagon shaft into the soil, and tomorrow it will grow into a carriage! This was the great writer Chekhov’s exclamation about the land of Ukraine. On this fertile black earth, a group of outstanding artists sing the song of the land with their brushes. Their enchanting voices seem like a breeze passing through a birch forest—graceful and captivating.
