Opening of the exhibition of works of the creative workshop of printed graphics at the Sakhalin Regional Universal Scientific Library “Nivkh ornaments. An outside view.”

In order to draw the attention of the world community to the plight of many indigenous languages, the UN General Assembly proclaimed the period from 2022 to 2032 the International Decade of Indigenous Languages of the World. The Sakhalin Regional Universal Scientific Library dedicated to this event the exhibition of linocuts “Nivkh ornament. An outside view.” The name “View from the outside” was given to the exhibition because the printing plates were made not by representatives of the Nivkh people, but by visitors to the workshop and students of the art school of the city of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. The 26 works presented, made in the technique of linocut, have replenished the library’s collection.
