To the Independence Day, 1+1 will show the TV version of the unique project "Ark "Ukraine"

The concert is organized by the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy and the State Agency of Ukraine for Arts and Art Education, together with the Kovcheg "Ukraine" cultural platform, and the project is produced by Big Entertainment Shows under the leadership of Volodymyr Zavadyuk.

"We hope that this product will have the potential to become the property of more than one generation. "Ark" is a mix of authentic and modern culture, so we invited modern Ukrainian performers to rethink and introduce the audience to Ukrainian works of different eras in their interpretation. The heritage of Ukrainian folklore is multifaceted, and we always strive to present it in a fresh reading with the help of modern productions and technological solutions," said Volodymyr Zavadyuk.

The concert program will include archaic carols, a Lemki song will take on a new sound together with a symphony orchestra, and a classical piece by Volodymyr Ivasyuk will reveal to Ukrainians the author of their favorite pop hits from an unexpected side.

The directors of the show will be TRI Directions , consisting of Natalya Rovenska, Natalya Lysenkova and Maria Hryhorashchenko, known for their work on the projects "Dancing with the Stars", "Voice of the Country", as well as on the number Pink for Brit Awards . The stage of the show will be built in the shape of an ark ship with LED screens in the shape of a circle. In addition, AR effects of augmented reality are integrated into the concept of the concert, which will bring to life the masterpieces of traditional art of Ukraine.

The author and creative producer of the project is the founder of the Ark "Ukraine" cultural platform Yaryna Vynnytska. The conductor will be Oksana Lyniv, who is one of the top three conductors of our time. According to her, this project   can have a great role for the culture of the country.

"All my conscious life, I thought how much we lack, so that art becomes our brand, which will speak outside of us in the world. And it is for this purpose that we created the Ark. I believe in the great role of this project for the success of cultural diplomacy of Ukraine. In order to co-create a new human multicultural world, we still have to learn so much about ourselves and only in this way can we harmoniously join the many voices of the world," says Oksana Lyniv.

In addition, the organizers have prepared a series of unique posters, created in cooperation with stylist Valery Topal and ethnographer Marichka Kvitka .  

The broadcast date will be announced soon. Celebrate the anniversary of Independence together with 1+1.
