The well-illustrated book about one of the most prominent Ukrainian graphic artists and painters of the second half of the XX and the beginning of the XXI centuries Vasyl Lopata contains biographical data about his dynamic, interesting and instructive life for the current period of development of Ukrainian culture. The destroyed, impoverished village in Chernihiv region is the childhood of the future master. The Art Institute and postgraduate studies in Kyiv under the guidance of famous professors and academics Cassian and Deregus are the years of formation of his talent. The assertion of national themes in book and easel engraving during the unprecedented Russification of Ukraine in the 1980s and 1990s was a difficult Sisyphean work, a struggle against conservatism and reactionary tendencies in "socialist-realist" Soviet art. Gaining a "new breath" after the independence of Ukraine, the glorification of the Christian and national idea - is the nineties. Surprising work on the design of banknotes of the national currency of Ukraine - the hryvnia. Finally, settling in 1994 on the opposite side of the globe from Ukraine, in the United States, in San Francisco, where Vasily continued his inspired work to glorify Ukraine. The study of the life and work of Vasyl Lopata is accompanied by a detailed professional analysis of his series, cycles and individual works of graphics and painting.
