As part of the weekend program, cadets from the Educational and Scientific Institute of Law and Specialist Training for National Police Units visited art exhibitions and watched a Ukrainian-made military tragicomedy.
Second-year students of the institute explored the works of Kharkiv artist Tetiana Pukhnavtseva, whose exhibition “Torn Edge” is on display at the “Artsvit” gallery. The future law enforcement officers were impressed by the unique combination of several graphic techniques and the land art objects that refer to the Japanese philosophy of kintsugi.
Third-year cadets visited the Dnipro House of Arts, where a national watercolor exhibition titled “Spring Diversity” opened. The students viewed about 140 works created by 43 artists from various parts of Ukraine. The exhibited landscapes included Carpathian views, European streets, and even the local “Sich” yacht club. According to the students, watercolor is one of the most challenging artistic techniques, mastered only by true professionals.
For national-patriotic education, the cadets watched the film “Call Sign Tamada,” which tells the story of a Ukrainian volunteer and his complete transformation due to the full-scale invasion. The students noted that the tragicomedy genre was somewhat unusual but fitting, as even in the most difficult times, Ukrainians maintain an excellent sense of humor.
