KYIV – In November 2018, the Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organizations (AFUO) launched a unique photo exhibition in Melbourne to mark 85 years since the Holodomor – Stalin’s man-made famine in Ukraine in 1932-33. The exhibition honored survivors of the Holodomor who eventually came to settle in Australia.
Nine months on, the exhibition opened in Kyiv through a collaboration between the AFUO and the National Museum: Holodomor Victims Memorial. On August 22, “Voices From Across the Ocean: Holodomor Photographic Exhibition” was officially opened by Ukraine’s Minister of Culture Yevhen Nyschuk.
