Abstract
The article raises the point of fate of a work of art in a totalitarian society. It deals with compositional and artistic qualities of the unique architectural ensemble—The Park of Memory in Kyiv—that was constructed in 1968–1982, and the significance of its main element—the Wall of Memory with its relief sculptures created by the artists A. Rybachuk and V. Melnychenko. The article substantiates the author’s point of view, concerning the fact that monumental stylistic uniqueness of the Wall of Memory in the context of the Park of Memory complex in Kyiv was that the Wall symbolized the commitment to freedom, tried to proclaim the value of each personality, which was a rebellious thought in the society, where it was normal to conform to the rules, whatever it takes. The author emphasizes the artistic characteristic features of the work by Ada Rybachuk and Volodymyr Melnychenko during the construction of the relief sculptures of the Wall of Memory.
