The Museum of International Folk Art was founded in 1953 by Florence Dibell Bartlett (1881-1954), a wealthy Chicagoan who began visiting New Mexico in the 1920s. Her guiding vision was summed up by her statement “The art of the craftsman is a bond between the peoples of the world.” Like many of her generation who lived through two world wars, Bartlett was seeking a way of bridging differences and creating a sense of fellowship among cultures. For Bartlett, traditional folk arts from around the world were a means of demonstrating a common bond.
Ukrainian Trench Art: "Боротьба (Combat)"
Ivan (only the first name of the artist is known) continues his artistic practice by creating reliefs in the trenches of Bakhmut, Ukraine using just a simple stick. When speaking of his trench art, Ivan mentions a Cossack, “a symbol of the Ukrainian people’s fighting spirit.” Pointing to another section of the relief, he remarks: “Good is on our side. God is on our side. Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the heroes.”
