The Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art (UIMA) preserves and promotes contemporary art as a shared expression of the Ukrainian and American experience. UIMA develops, utilizes and encourages artistic talent through exhibitions, concerts, readings, lectures and films to serve the cultural needs of our community and city, and thereby strengthen cultural understanding and diversity. In existence for over 40 years, UIMA continues to offer a robust schedule of exhibitions, musical and literary events, films, and gallery talks, including the annually anticipated Live and Silent Auction. Musical programs have included evenings with distinguished opera singers Samuel Ramey, Paul Plishka, and pianist Valentina Lisitsia, while the MAVerick Ensemble has filled the galleries with experimental and innovative jazz regularly. Writers and actors have showcased their work, and a variety of artist workshops are offered throughout the year.Image: Installation view.&nbsp;

Domestic Disturbances&nbsp;is an exhibition of work relating to the home within the context of the human condition and how our lives are reflected in what we call home. Issues represented in the artists&rsquo; works deal with what constitutes a home and how homes reflect our lives, outwardly and psychologically. These six artists approach the subject through psychological and symbolic perspectives, as well as situational ones.
