On June 20-26, the VI International Plein Air of Artists "Kolorit" is taking place in Volodymyr-Volynskyi, in which young artists from Ukraine, Poland, Russia, and Belarus are participating, – reported the own correspondent of the Western Information Corporation. \n \nThe International Plein Air of Artists "Kolorit," which traditionally takes place in Volodymyr-Volynskyi, is the sixth one. Young artists are attracted by the natural and historical beauty of the over 1000-year-old princely city, located on the banks of the Luha River. Traditionally, they visit the city's historical churches – the Holy Dormition Cathedral (a 12th-century monument), the Zymne Holy Trinity Convent (an 11th-century monument), and the preserved ramparts of the princely citadel. \n \nThis year, 28 artists are participating in the plein air – 14 visitors and 14 local artists. Among the city's guests are representatives from Kharkiv, Kyiv, Khmelnytskyi, Voronezh (Russian Federation), Minsk (Belarus), and Giżycko (Poland). Each of the plein air participants must complete two works during the week – on historical and local history themes and on a free theme. \n \nOn June 26, as part of the celebration of Youth Day, an exhibition-vernissage of the plein air participants' works will be set up on the Square of the Heroes of the City, and the summing up of results and presentation of commemorative souvenirs will take place. The best works will enrich the funds of the local historical and local history museum. The residents of Volodymyr have plans to open their own art gallery in the city. \n
