Ukrainian Modernism

Ukrainian Modernism is a cultural and educational project dedicated to the research, preservation, and promotion of Ukraine's often-overlooked modernist architecture and monumental art. Founded in December 2020, the project addresses the critical need for safeguarding this heritage in a country where legal protection alone is insufficient. The project has cultivated a dedicated community of 78 members, with 42 actively supporting its work through Patreon, generating an estimated $337 in monthly revenue (ranging from $86 to $8,600). This range suggests fluctuating contributions from patrons, possibly reflecting the project's reliance on individual support in its efforts to document and preserve this vital cultural legacy. Unlike typical architectural history platforms, Ukrainian Modernism focuses specifically on the unique challenges and opportunities of preserving modernist heritage within a dynamic and complex socio-political context, making its work invaluable to scholars, preservationists, and anyone interested in Ukrainian culture and history. The project's achievements highlight the significant impact of community-driven initiatives in cultural preservation.
