Archive of the "Third Millennium". Solomiya Pavlychko

Mystetska Biblioteka invites you to a joint viewing of an archival recording of a conversation between Viktor Neborak and literary critic Solomiya Pavlychko.

The conversation took place on March 28, 1997, on the occasion of the publication of her monograph "Discourse of Modernism in Ukrainian Literature" and was part of a series of meetings "The Third Millennium" held by Viktor Neborak at the Museum of Ethnography in Lviv in the second half of the 1990s.

With this event, we open a new series of meetings at the Mystetska Biblioteka to review and rethink the archive of the Third Millennium together.

The video is part of the Victor Neborak video archive, which was recently digitized by the Urban Media Archive of the Center for Urban History. The collection contains 150 hours of footage from literary events, festivals, performances, and concerts that took place mainly in the second half of the 1990s and document key figures of Ukrainian culture, the period of the fall of the USSR, the emergence of independence, and the phenomena and discourses that accompanied this time.

The largest part of the archive is video recordings of the "Third Millennium" series of literary evenings organized and moderated by Viktor Neborak at the Museum of Ethnography from 1995 to 2000.

The event is organized in cooperation with the Center for Urban History.

We are grateful to Viktor Neborak and his family for opening the archives and assisting in their processing.
