Flower City Arts Center will host an Opening Reception for Mirko Pylyshenko Retrospective: Prints from 1965-2017 in the Printmaking Studio, on display through December 30.

Mirko taught printmaking at SUNY Brockport during the golden years of Wendell Castle, Nathan Lyons, Garth Fagan, Albert Paley, Robert Marx and Jack Wolsky. His work has been shown in many galleries, and include the graphic logo for BOA Editions. Mirko is a very proud and active member of Rochester's Ukrainian community. All proceeds from print sales to go the Flower City Arts Center, Printmaking and Book Arts, and to aid victims of the Russian war in Poltava, Rochester's sister city in Ukraine.
