Abstract
Про необхідність реставрації Староакадемічного корпусу (1703-1740 рр.) (пам’ятка архітектури та історії національного значення) НаУКМА.
Якщо якнайближчим часом держава не включиться у процес порятунку Староакадемічного (Мазепиного) корпусу, Україна ризикує втратити найстарішу навчальну будівлю, яка протягом 313 років існування не змінювала свого освітнього призначення, а Могилянка - свій архітектурний символ.
У Староакадемічному корпусі (1703 р.) розміщуються Дослідницька бібліотека з унікальними книжковими колекціями, у Конгрегаційній залі відбувалися наукові форуми та найурочистіші академічні події. Проте, через вкрай незадовільний стан експлуатація Конгрегаційної зали майже припинена, а вільний доступ до будівлі суттєво обмежений. Кожен рік зволікання погіршує стан будівлі та здорожчує вартість реставрації, котра на сьогодні вже складає понад 80 млн. гривень.
Саме зараз Концептуальна записка державного інвестиційного проекту «Реставрація Староакадемічного корпусу ансамблю Братського монастиря по вул. Г. Сковороди, 2 у Подільському районі м. Києва» проходить процедуру відкритого громадського обговорення, ініційованого Міністерством освіти та науки. Це – необхідна передумова для включення проекту до держбюджету 2018-го року.
Для приверення уваги громадськості до проблеми Староакадемічного корпусу Києво-Могилянська академія організовує круглий стіл «Староакадемічний корпус Могилянки: шляхи порятунку» (13 грудня 2016 року в приміщенні Українського кризового медіа-центру, Український дім, Київ)
The Old Academic Building is connected with the name of Ivan Mazepa, the Ukrainian Kozak Hetman, who paid for the construction of this building in 1703. The building is an integral part of Ukrainian education and culture, the 17-18th century glory days of the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy gave the world the founders of scientific schools, renowned architects, artists, and politicians. This building was depicted on the 17-18th century Kyiv-Mohyla Academy seal. Its image is also featured on the logo of the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute, the Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences Hrushevskyi Archeography and Source Studies Institute, as well as Ukraine’s 500 hryvnia banknote. The Old Academic Building has a complex history of repeated reconstructions, both functional and decorative. From 1870 it housed a library. With volumes collected throughout the 17-18th centuries, it was considered the largest scientific library in Eastern Europe, containing about 158,000 volumes, including 2,130 books in many different languages from Petro Mohyla’s first academic library. A large part of this library remained in the building throughout Soviet rule. Currently the building houses the Kyiv-Mohyla Graduate Library and the Academy’s Doctoral School. There are several 17-early 18th century frescoes in the building. Only a small handful of other buildings contain such frescoes, the Kyiv Monastery of the Caves and the St. Sofia complex, both of which are UNESCO heritage sites. With the renaissance of the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy on its historic Podil territory, the Old Academic Building, as in its heyday, has welcomed prominent U.S. statesmen, the leaders of many European countries, the most renowned intellectuals from the United States and Europe during their visits to Ukraine. Important academic meetings and the festive presentations take place here. The Graduate Library in the Old Academic Building is home to valuable books and book collections. Its galleries host art events and exhibitions. The Old Academic Building is genuine pearl of Baroque art and architecture, a unique building that has preserved its primary purpose as an academic building and Library to the present day.
