Studio of monumental painting was repeatedly reorganized during
the XX century. Teaching staff, ideological foundations and methods of teaching
were changed at different times. Its history started from the creation of the Ukrainian
Academy of Arts. In the beginning it was M. Boychuk’s studio opened in 1917. Soon
the department of monumental painting was created. It included a studio under
the direction of M. Boychuk, L. Kramarenko, A. Taran. In 1930 department was
transferred to the Kharkiv Art Institute. Only M. Boychuk`s studio was functioning
but later it was closed for various reasons. Conditions for the reopening of the studio
appeared in the second half of 1950. At this time there were important changes
in construction. It led to the search for a new kind of monumental art. Active
development of monumental art and need for qualified specialists became ground
for reopening of the studio. The process of resurgence of monumental studio started
in the early 60’s and lasted for several years. The first students enrolment took place
in 1965. There were many different problems with preparation for the opening of
the studio. The head of the restored studio was V. Chekanyuk (1965–1967, 1973–
2000) and T. Yablonska (1967–1972).
Training program was developed by professors of the studio. Of course,
the specific details of the training program would vary at different times, but the
basic principles remained the same. The task of painting, drawing, composition fully
met the specifics of studio and was created with all the features of monumental art.
Learning process was based on the experience of monumental art of past years
but did not break away from the realities of contemporary and innovative trends.
Students studied deeply various monumental techniques: sgraffito and fresco were
studied in the third year of education, mosaic in the fourth year and stained glass in
the fifth year. Much attention was paid to synthesis of the art. Composition was in
harmonious combination with architecture.
Many generations of graduates from monumental painting studio embodied
successfully their ideas in a variety of monumental objects in Ukraine and abroad. Many
of them have succeeded not only in monumental art but also in other genres of fine art
