Like the whole world, we are thrilled that, at last, Orest's family, like hundreds of other Heroes of Azovstal, can breathe, as their Heroes, after months of captivity, are finally Home!🇺🇦

But at the same time, thousands of others are still being held in russian captivity and being tortured, and only through joint efforts and publicity can we bring all our Heroes home!

We thank all our donors and buyers for their support and remind you that the works are available on our website, and now is the time to support a real Hero! 💙💛

The main part of our exposition dedicated to the defense of Mariupol was the most emotional for us as well as for hundreds of our visitors
No one could look away or hold back tears in front of the heroism and tragedy that are illustrated by the photo of Dmitry Kozatsky (callsign Orest)
No one could remain indifferent to the invincible hope
And no one remained the same after this reflashing experience...

It is a great honor to present these bottomlessly deep and talented works! And our mission is to show these photos to as many people as possible until the most unconditional Victory! 🇺🇦

The art and the artist.

We are so proud that our project, "BE BRAVE Art Show," was invited by the Consulate General of Ukraine in Houston and personally Consul General of Ukraine in Houston Vitalii Tarasiuk as the leading exhibition on the 31st anniversary of Ukraine's independence celebration.
Typically this main state holiday in modern Ukrain is celebrated with concerts and parades, but this time the Consulate General of Ukraine in Houston and the World Affairs Council of Greater Houston held our "BE BRAVE Art Show" to demonstrate the spirit of the Ukrainian people in their battle for independence.

It was a one-of-a-kind opportunity to present our BE BRAVE Art Show to representatives of the diplomatic corps who attended the event, members of Congress and senators, representatives of big business, and the Ukrainian community in Texas.

BE BRAVE Art Show is a large-scale exhibition of stunning, young, touching artworks created by well-known and emerging contemporary Ukrainian artists during the ongoing war.
Be Brave featured more than 60 engaging works from over 30 artists at this event.
🎉And we are thrilled to announce that almost half of the artworks were sold that evening. 🎉 Thank you all for supporting Ukrainian culture!

During the official part of the event, the Consulate General of Ukraine in Houston received official congratulations from Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a resolution signed by over 60 Texas members of Congress presented by Congressman Tan Parker, a separate proclamation from Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw, proclamation sharing from Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner, and a special mention from Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson, and letter of congratulations from the mayor San Antonio by Ron Nirenberg.
Thanks for the help of the event World Affairs Council of Greater Houston

Thank you, Olexy Ohurtsov, for the photos!

Thanks to all the supporters!
Thank you for your donations!
Thank you for purchasing Ukrainian art!
Thank you for supporting Ukrainian culture financially!
Thank you for helping us to fulfill our primary purpose!
Which is to talk to Americans using visual language about what this means and how it feels to be brave during the war.
"Being brave is our brand; we will spread our courage to the world.
This is what it means to be us. To be Ukrainians." - from the address of the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky.
The theme, BE BRAVE, was created as a message of hope
to the Ukrainian resistance, which remains stoically brave in Russia's murderous attacks;
to all of us who are in grief and experiencing shame witnessing this devastating war in the 21st century;
to all of us watching as truth and freedom are under attack by Russia;
to those who cannot look away;
to those who cannot give up, who feel we must act;
and then "life will conquer death, and light will conquer darkness. "(Zelensky's words on the cover of TIME magazine.)
