AN UNKNOWN PAGE IN THE HISTORY OF POST-WAR ARTISTIC IMMIGRATION: THE FATE OF THE ARTISTIC WORK OF AN BELARUSIAN PAINTER MIKOLA PAŠKEVIČThis article is a first attempt at introducing and showing the creative carrier of a Belarusian artist Mikola Paškevič (1907–2003). It shows the development of his art from his early works to his last paintings, creating cycles with a big religious and philosophical impact. It showed the themes
picked up by the artist such as historical motifs arranged in the spirit of communist propaganda of the 1930’s, as well as the last, allegorical and sacral phase of his work, that belongs to the new, contemporary trends in art. Returning Paškevič’s unknown legacy is strongly connected with understanding his painting’s role in the interaction and diffusion of the Belarusian, Russian and Lithuanian cultural currents of the 20th century inside the country, (during the time when the artist studied art in Vitebsk and Leningrad and worked in Minsk and Kaunas) and during exile as well.
