Holodomor: 75Th Anniversary Year Olodomor No. 2 THE UKRAINIAN WEEKLY SUNDAY, JANUARY 11, 2009 5 2008: THE YEAR IN REVIEW Holodomor: 75th anniversary year olodomor. During 2008 the word seemed to be everywhere as Ukrainians around the globe Hmarked the solemn 75th anniversary of the Famine-Genocide of 1932-1933 and mourned the millions deliberately killed by the Soviet regime. The true figure of deaths due to the Holodomor will never be known due to the cover-up engineered, with great success, by Soviet authorities and their collaborators. However, it has been estimated that at the height of the Famine-Genocide some 25,000 people died each day. It was premeditated murder on the grandest scale directed from Moscow by Joseph Stalin. Indeed, the only term that can properly define what happened on Ukrainian lands in those fateful years is genocide – a word coined only in the late 1940s and a crime codified in the “Convention on Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide,” adopted by the United Nations in 1948. What the Ukrainians tried to do as part of its commemora- tions of the Holodomor anniversary was tell the story of the Ukrainian genocide to a world that for far too long remained ignorant or has been deceived about the facts. The major events marking the Holodomor took place in Kyiv in November 22. The day began with President Official Website of Ukraine’s President Viktor Yushchenko and First Lady Kateryna Yushchenko A view of the ceremony in memory of Holodomor vicitms at Kyiv’s St. Michael’s Square on November 22. laying flowers at the Famine monument erected in 1993 on St. Michael’s Square and a memorial service concele- of 1932-1933.

Millin MAM’s strategic focus areas — Artistic Innovation, Community Connection, and Organizational Excellence — are rooted in our mission and values and are interwoven into our funding goals. The vision that drives this inexorably forward is to generate creativity by presenting and commissioning challenging work, and bringing artists together with their audience. This spring brings an exciting multi-faceted project with exhibiting artist Holly Andres, made possible with the support of the Pleiades Foundation. Andres will travel from her current home 02 in Portland, OR, to her original home of Missoula for a week-long residency, creating a wide range of opportunities for her to interact with museum visitors and the University community. Andres will be presented at MAM with an opening reception, gallery talk, and a distinguished artist lecture co-sponsored by the University of Montana Jim and Jane Dew Visiting Artist Lecture Fund, and will visit with UM art classes. The residency will culminate with the commission of a one-of-a kind Missoula-oriented artwork that will become part of MAM’s Permanent Collection. MAM will have the opportunity to collect additional artwork from Andres’ exhibit with the collaboration and support of the Contemporary Collector’s Circle, MAM’s collection support group whose dues are devoted exclusively to acquisitions to the collection. Finally, by adding these artworks to the three Andres photographs and two video artworks already in the collection, MAM will circulate a traveling exhibit to expose the work to audiences across Montana through the Montana Art Gallery Directors Association.
