Abstract
This paper examines Mykhail Semenko’s Futurist manifestos that developed an opposition
between “national” and “international” art, and specifically called “national” art provincial and
retrograde. In promoting the international European avant-garde, Semenko’s essays demonstrate
how consistently he championed a contemporary and modern Ukrainian culture in the face of
home-grown conservatism.
