Viktor Ivanovych Marushchenko (Ukrainian: Віктор Іванович Марущенко; born 1 February 1946 in Novosibirsk, USSR; died 28 September 2020 in Kyiv) was a Ukrainian documentary photographer and educator. From 1999 to 2000, he was head of the Kyiv branch of the National Union of Photographers of Ukraine.[1] In 2001, Marushchenko took part in the main exhibition of the 49th Venice Biennale with his photo series on the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.[2]
Biography
[edit]Marushchenko was born on 1 February 1946 in Novosibirsk, where his parents had moved from Kyiv during the Second World War.[1][3]
In 1951, Marushchenko returned to Kyiv. He first attended the vocational school for radio electronics and the Institute of Food Industry in Kyiv.[1]
In the mid-1970s, he began working as a theatre photographer. From 1980 to 1991, he worked as a photojournalist for the Moscow-based newspaper Sovetskaya Kultura in the Ukrainian SSR; he then worked as a photographer for the Ukrainian newspaper Den from 1997 to 1998, after which he remained active as a freelance photographer and artist.[1][4]
In 2004, he founded the Viktor Marushchenko School of Photography in Kyiv, at which he served as director and lecturer.[5][6] A number of Ukrainian and international artists taught at the school, including Boris Mikhailov, Valeriy Miloserdov, Oleksandr Glyadyelov and Sasha Kurmaz.[7]
In 2010, Marushchenko published the first issue of the photography magazine 5.6, which featured Ukrainian and international contemporary photography.[3][8]
Marushchenko passed away on 28 September 2020 at the age of 74.[1][9][10]
Art
[edit]In 1989, Viktor Marushchenko temporarily relocated to Switzerland and took part in the exhibition “A Hundred Photographers of Eastern Europe” at the Musée de l’Élysée in Lausanne; thereafter, he regularly held exhibitions across Europe and North America.[11][12]
Among Marushchenko's most significant works are the Chornobyl photo series (1986–2005), exhibited at the 49th Venice Biennale in 2001 (curated by Harald Szeemann),[13] as well as the photographic project Dreamland Donbas about illegal miners in eastern Ukraine, exhibited at the São Paulo Biennial in 2004.[14] In 2000, Marushchenko's photographs were shown alongside works by the Ukrainian artist Maria Prymachenko at an exhibition in Berlin.[15]
In 1997, Benteli Verlag in Bern, Switzerland, published the photo book Viktor Maruščenko. Ukraine. Fotografien with texts in German and Ukrainian (edited by Hugo and Iryna Schär-Tkachenko; ISBN 3716510963).
