The estate of the artist Alexander Saenko

Museum / gallery

Borzna Art and Memorial Museum "Estate of the People's Artist of Ukraine Oleksandr Saenko" opened in 1996 in the house of the Saenko family in the town of Borzna in Chernihiv region. The exposition covers the life and work of a prominent Ukrainian artist-decorator, whose name is included in the list of outstanding figures of world culture by UNESCO. Alexander Saenko was born here in 1899. Due to his illness, he lost his hearing and speech as a child, but thanks to the protection of his neighbor Saenko, the writer Ganna Barvinok (wife of Panteleimon Kulish), he got into the St. Petersburg Imperial School of the Deaf and Dumb. He became most famous for his works in the field of monumental and monumental-decorative art in the technique of straw inlay. The museum's exposition presents such well-known works as "Kozak Mamai", "Semen Paliy" and others. Also on display are carpets, tapestries, punches by Saenko, and his collection of Ichnia tiles.
