[000:00:00;00] all 40 minutes and go already in kharkiv, a pioneer, if it was the former governor of the kharkiv region , this is a dobkin, if the thought went that this is kharkiv , switzerland, there is a ruble, baden-baden, traditional local architecture, which until recently was a lot in artyukhivka is being destroyed, and new villas are being built either simply to one's own taste, or at best to foreign models, if you look at some new buildings there, some chalets, what is happening there, there are some mediterranean villas, something people, clearly it works above that exotic copy-paste, and you know, as a rule

, a person speaks this other... language without understanding this language, it is so certain there is some kind of globalization, but it must have some limit, as a rule, this folk architecture, it very coolly cooperates with landscapes, when you put it like a plant from some meadow and somewhere in a vase, something is wrong with it later. well, for example, somewhere in switzerland or there in austria, maybe there. finland, it was constantly somehow transformed there, but based on these certain traditional techniques, technologies, resources, and everything else, yes. today , almost nothing remains of the original clay artyukhivka. the clay went into the ground, ecological local materials were replaced with more functional, modern ones. however,

there are still houses in the village. in which life continues under the roof. knock knock! good day. good day. and we wanted to ask you about your house, because we are looking for such houses, old ones, that were left there under the roof, under the reeds. my parents bought the house after the war, who built it, how it was built, it was back in the 50s. that's it , there. you see, the wreckage is already there a long, long time ago, at the same time , these houses were clearly built, in addition to traditional mud huts, in the midnight of slobozhanshchyna, to this day , you can also find interesting examples of wooden architecture. but there was a little pool, and a little fountain, and here the fish swam, and here it was

like this. all the way to the road, the alley was well-kept, well, in general, it was a fairy tale here, and now look, carefully, point, it is written lk , you see, it is written, leopold keniach, this is a wooden estate, dated 1880, it was built by a german named i'm leopold koenich, he was a very successful entrepreneur, who in the 19th century had a parquet floor in slobozhanshchyna. factory, distilleries, brick and sugar factories, and this house he built just for the manager of the sugar factory. he lived all upstairs, the master, still the manager, and the servants lived all downstairs, in the basement, all the rooms were such that they lived there, cooked food, did laundry, everything was done there, only

the fireplaces went up. how warm it was, this house was brought in entirely from scarelia, we don’t have such types of wood, the bottom was made, one row was made of oak, and then all the karetz pine was gone, all that we have, all the architecture somewhere inside our borders, it is all ukrainian architecture, it could be austro-hungarian, i don’t know, polish, which, from other empires , soviet, but this is all ukrainian architecture and it should not be given to anyone, yes, this is all our heritage, and everything that happened, happened, yes, and we took part in it, in some different

ways. and this is all, this is all ours, this must be preserved. the house has a difficult history: in 1917, the bolsheviks came, the kenikhs managed to emigrate, and the estate was remodeled. they built the so-called fzo school of factory factory training here and it existed until 1975, in 1977 they started giving it to people to live in, gave them apartments, i was born here in the huts, lived here, went to school, finished everything and worked at the factory , when i distributed the same apartments, and i have been living here for 40 years. in soviet times, the large rooms of the estate were distributed among the factory workers by

60 km, the interiors have changed, but some of the previous life of the house remains, you see how high we have, look at the stucco, look at the edges, what stucco, and here, here are the fireplaces through which the heat went, here is the chimney, well, i already pasted it a little, but not white marble, well, i'm here, it's the same with the stoves, then you go here, you see, these are such rooms, with the beginning of a full-scale war, the apartment became a home for a large family, children and grandchildren came to live with their parents. the place became a temporary shelter for immigrants, who also came here as families, taking cats and dogs from home, a basement in which a servant lived in kenikha, it began to be used as a bomb shelter, well, you see, there were windows, they were fixed, then of course, you see , there were windows below, windows, windows, windows, they were fixed, well, yes, a servant lived here, well, i

now i will cover it, well here, now we have settled down, we have stocked up for the war, that is gas, well, we have stocked up on firewood, we think. but look at the ceilings, here you can see that they have prepared something beautiful, hap, here, more, well, it ’s not just one, they cleaned there, there was a stove, and then you see, there’s a room, there ’s a room, there’s a room, there three rooms, and that's it the fourth, there were four rooms, four families lived here, i don’t know, in the part where people live, the house is somehow supported, the other side is slowly collapsing, the owner of the apartment went abroad, he does not sell the apartment, but he does not repair it either , a few years ago a brick extension was made to the house , which now has a bathroom and a kitchen, to arrange your life in such a way as to have comfort at the same time and

at the same time preserve the authentic look of the estate, there are no funds, what we ourselves support is what is supported, no one cares for anyone gives nothing the roof was covered in the 60s, a hole was patched somewhere, they patched it, well, we support it ourselves, they mostly live here now, but i have been a pensioner for 10 years, here, here, too, the same pensioners live , well, who is going to do what here, she, in my opinion, there should be a lot more protection than there is now, you know, it's like with elderly people , they, they're very, very difficult to... take care of them, it's a very large amount of medicine, i don't know, some things, different things , that, that, but we do it, because

we are grateful to them for our lives, for which they gave us, that, and and also from the same architecture, well, for example, in many countries there is special additional government funding, well, for example, if you have an old house, there are certain, i don’t know, pensions, scholarships, and those that are given to support it, there many people came there, on a tour, looked at this house and everyone said, oh, it needs to be protected, oh, it needs to be protected, what is being done with it, everything is needed, everyone is indignant that such a house, no one, it is not for anyone needed having learned about our interest in ancient samples of local architecture, local

residents advised us to visit the nearby village of pavlivka, where a hundred-year-old wooden school has been preserved, and it is not only preserved, but also works successfully. this school was built in 1906 and the customer went to siberia from the village, who ordered this wood for the construction of this school, brought it here and the school was completed without a single whistle, this building was financed. was the same leopold koenich, who was a philanthropist and took care of the development of the region. our school suffered great grief from the lessons of the great patriotic war, because it was right here was located, there was a fascist stable, and then, when the village was liberated, then people began to rebuild this school by their own efforts, and the parents of the students, and the students themselves, and the teachers brought the school to a normal appearance. residents of pavlivka independently restored

the school. it was kept in its authentic form for a very long time and only in the last 30 years were the wooden roof and windows replaced. what is nice, they are proud of their school here, they don't want it to be like everyone else, they don't want to cover it with bricks or cover it with clapboard. and it happens so many that if someone they know there comes to visit, they definitely come, take pictures here, see if there really is such a school here, and if it is really so beautiful here, we don't live one day, one life, we try to make our the school flourished, was beautiful so that the students went to this school with great pleasure. the students are proud of the school, and the school is proud of the students, everything is as it should be, and the participants of ato too, we had students of our school, these are ustinov, and shcherbak, and kupovyh, and of course now... these guys are ours and the sandpiper artem now

these guys protect the borders of ukraine also from russians. every time we travel with expeditions, we are most fascinated by people who do not want to leave their village or town somewhere further away as soon as possible, but stay and develop their own, well, we built this wall, we had nine people then, and that's it just look at all the surnames, who worked on this wall here, just from me, i, of course , planned this wall, stood up and told that you will make a pink flower, that one makes leaves, that one, that one, and so on we got along amicably, well and very quickly, what he does, he does.

they got up and worked early and until late, but they did it, well, my task was to make the composition so that it was unique, so to speak, in every work, you see, here we have birds, there is a rooster, there are viburnums and so on. this was our main goal, so to speak, to decorate the center of petrykyvka, but with these of ours, petrykyvka is a unique place on the map of ukraine, unique in that not only has a special local painting been preserved here, it is still developing at a frantic pace. here a large number of modern masters live and work, who are constantly teaching the next generations. petryakiv painting originated as a decoration of a peasant home. those who had the best in the house were called chepurushkas.

we had clay of different colors, and the juices of berries, flowers, leaves, all this was used together with, with an egg , that is, either white or yolk was taken, a painting was created, simple elements, but it was already a wall painting, petrykivka itself was founded in 1772, 1770. the second year, even then the eyes were, so to speak, small on work, someone already started, did it, and all the time it was polished, polished , until bright masters appeared, every petryakiv housewife was asked to have a petryakiv ornament in her house, of course, as they say, we petryakiv people in the house as in the church, but not all the housewives had the same talent for drawing, so the artists or the poor people created, as they called little pictures,

small drawings for sale, they drove cattle through the peterkivka, traded grain there, and in parallel, since there were a lot of people , you can all kinds of shops, all kinds of products were to be sold, and now these women with a pile of paper began to draw such pictures to decorate the bastard and such postcards that were attached to the komen mirror, who knew how to do it more exquisitely, in that, the bigger and hundreds were, the phenomenon of the petrykiv painting arose here for a reason, the fact is that the village was founded by the cossacks, it was a free town where there was never serfdom, people who were freedom-loving fled here, these are the kind of people who did not like the oppression of anyone, here they are ran away, since there was no serfdom here, they settled, and survived on what they owned

, besides, petrykivka had a favorable location, at the crossroads of important trade routes, where huge fairs were held four times a year. someone embroidered, someone wove, someone carved wood, whether there was wickerwork or, whether there was straw, or painted, well, everyone survived in their own way, and that is why all the people here were creative, creativity is spirituality, this is a highly spiritual settlement, you can say, if the first drawings were simply brought to fairs to exchange for something other or to sell, then later they started turning to female artists with orders, craftsmen appeared: who in fact became the founders of petrykiv painting. these are tetyana pata, bilokin, pylypenko, pavlenko, and even earlier, the names of the master painters simply did not survive, and their works also disappeared, because they were created with paints

of natural origin. this work was created with the first factory paints, not linen paints, which is why it has survived to our time. in... at some point , professional artists became interested in folk art, one of which oleksandr stativa. in 1936, he founded a school of decorative painting for young people in petrykivka. he took tatyana yakymivna pata, one of those craftsmen who were just the first churupushkas, who - well , if they distinguished themselves at the fair with their best drawings, as the teacher of the petrikiv painting. since then, the number of masters in petrykivka increased, men also appeared among them, and the painting began to develop at unprecedented rates and continues to this day. each school has petrykivsky painting circles, the house of children's creativity, there is also a circle. seniors

classes, we have industrial training, and at this industrial training, children master the elements of petryakov painting. if you wish , you can become a profession. a master, having graduated from a special school located right here in petrykivka. children from lviv and from kyiv and donetsk studied with me, petrykyvka will learn, it is necessary only in petrykyvka , it arose here, it was born here, they should learn here. the approach to teaching and spreading petrykiv painting continues to gain scale. there are museums, schools, festivals, special literature and even prescriptions. on which children learn to reproduce individual elements of painting. in this place, where we are now, we always have a miracle flower every year in the month of september. craftsmen from all over petrykivka come here. it is interesting that thanks to the festival, the paintings still live in their authentic environment, on

the walls of petrikyvka buildings. masters have been painting the village with their compositions for 14 years. when we built the first fence, this one was the first to be painted. and people pass by and say, well , what are you drawing, they will smear it, him they will pee, everything, for which it is only a labor of translation, and we become like this, i think, when young guys go and stop and say, oh, thank you so much for drawing this, and one kneels down, i say, what about you , he, yes, yes, i say, no one will write, no one will draw, once the young people said that it is very beautiful, that they like it, until today no one... who wrote anything there, did nothing, nothing, thanks to the masters administration of the village, 10 years ago, petrykivsky painting was included in the intangible heritage of unesco, and we painted this wall, when the representatives , those who had to vote in unesco, came to the devutsvit, they and we finished

some elements on this wall, for example , look, here is a berry, there is a berry somewhere, there was no consensus about this... there was no easy, but in 2013 , 600 experts from 95 countries of the world voted for the petrykiv painting. how do we know that this is the petryakiv painting? first, only in our painting a cat is painted with a brush, it is called a brush made of cat hair, this particular brush. he gives a unique brushstroke that distinguishes our painting from others, an onion, a wild flower, these are flowers that you will not find in other... paintings, well, many of us paint viburnums - this is a symbol of girlish, feminine beauty, oak

leaves, this , a cossack symbol, male strength, courage, by the way, a bird is a symbol of goodness, happiness, peace, comfort, well, that is, a lot of elements of our painting have their own sacred meaning, and why did they paint the walls, above the doors, above the window there were these friezes, because people believed that this beauty would not let them go the houses are evil, among the flowers are older parent birds, well, it's like a family and their children, chicks, it is believed that

even the buds on the flowers are future children. petrikovsky painting is a complex technique that requires a high level of skill, and if today in order to master this technique, just desire and persistence are enough, 50 years ago it was not easy to learn to be an artist in the village. i had my first impression of painting when i was about three years old, when my grandmother’s neighbor was repairing her mosaic hut and took down all those drawings, that’s what our streets and she gave me, it was such a pile, well, i was little, for me it was such a pile of those ribbons, and all painted brightly, i have never seen such a thing in my life, or life was after the war, i have been since 1957. i was just over the moon with happiness, i still remember, i had a strong first impression

of beauty, i early started copying those drawings, as much as i liked them, that i just made copies of them, and that's how i just came to the art studio school, got to sokolenko vasyl ivanovych, but i have nothing there was no shape or anything, so he invited me to his home, gave me three powders. such powders, you know, with which eggs were dyed at easter, and were sold in the bazaars, they, and he also gave me his brush, a brush made of wool, well , that was my first path to painting, but to realize the dream of studying at an art university in lviv it was not possible, due to the difficulty with the exams in the mandatory subjects, ukrainian language and literature, in our country, the city is pro-russian. and

the ukrainian language and literature were ignored in the special secondary school, and i came across an enchanted desna, a long-haired woman, and we didn’t pass it, because in general only russian language and literature and that’s all, and my attempts like that ended, but the artist managed to realize herself in her native village, under the supervision of experienced craftsmen, and as soon as the level became satisfactory, work began at the factory. at first it was called friendship, and then petrykivsky painting and the factory created a souvenir that went not only throughout ukraine, but even abroad, souvenirs, plates, caskets, fishing sets were made there, then the wood was gone, spoons, well, there were various kitchen sets, everything was made, there was a lot of work and so i gradually grew, grew, i joined the artists' union, that's it continued to grow in this

creative environment. although souvenirs were exported to more than 20 countries in the world in order to survive, ukrainian folk art in the soviet period was constantly teetering on the edge of bans. it was necessary to survive somehow, there, let's say, until some congress, some other anniversary of october and so on, plates were produced, which were also dedicated there to victory day, 1500 years to kyiv, well, that is, a little bit of politics was brought into the petryakiv painting, and thanks to this it was not oppressed, on the contrary, it developed, with the collapse of the soviet union , our factory began to decline, and the salary it was very, well, it was not there at all , we still had to create souvenirs, souvenirs with which to go somewhere in order to somehow support ourselves, so we traveled around the cities, and somehow we survived this

way. with rh, the body can lose water, therefore a must for copious drinking, the solution for copious drinking water reo. reo - water for special medical purposes. turn on well, that's when everything is as you want. click and now you control the game. the bird and you are in a tv show. oh, what is needed. mego. turn on hundreds of channels, thousands of movies and sports. espresso celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2023. we are proud to present our new ethereal look. stay tuned for an updated espresso, because we'll stay in touch regardless. the information hour on the espresso tv channel continues. we are in touch with you

mykola's younger son's work. it is interesting that the rooms in the house are made in a separate color, there is green, yellow and blue. each of them is decorated with petrikovsky painting. you see, there is a lot of positivity in the painting, such symbols are all positive, all bright, sunny, and birds, in beaks like a twig, this means that this is wedding symbolism, well, my daughter was about to get married. this room was painted by svetlana’s eldest daughter, this is my sister’s work, a large watman and two small ones, and i will show you this room in the green color of the room valentina was the first to paint, 45 years
