    Narrative

    Below is a narrative written by Nadia Werbitzky for one of her shows.

    “The young girl who once lived in a far away land and never dreamed that there would be a dreaded war during which she would be taken out of her country to be placed in camps behind barbed wire for many years to come. It was Germany in War and it was the Fate of the Ukrainian people. Those years of humiliation, hard slave labor, hunger and constant fear, left its imprint on the memories made by Nadia Werbitzky’s paintings.

    With the end of the war, while Europe was reshuffling its borders, Nadia did not waste time. Nadia entered first Meisterschule of Cologne and later the Art Academy in Dusseldorf, before emigrating first to Canada, and then to the United States. No matter where she lived, she painted the subject so dear to her heart, the people of her native country. Not likeness, but images, nobody posses for her, they are the people that she knew, the people that crossed her path. Nadia also takes her subjects from history, literature, folk lore and music. The native folk songs play an important part she always listens to them while painting.

    Many of Nadia’s personal emotions are manifested in her painting of the natural beauty of the land, in nature and the people, that she loved so much.”
