The goal of the article is to draw attention of the art community to the little‑known memoirs of Leonid Chernov (1915–1990), a famous Ukrainian graphic artist, professor of Kharkiv Art and Industrial Institute. These memoirs are called A Word about Alma Mater and exist as a 120‑page self‑published book. They provide an opportunity for modern readers to learn firsthand how art education was organized in Kharkiv Art College and Kharkiv Art Institute in the 1930s–1950s. The original text is kept in the artist’s family and exists only as a single typewritten copy. In recent decades, about a dozen scholars have had the opportunity to get acquainted with the literary heritage of L. Chernov. Only some theses from this unique text have been quoted in individual academic papers. Chernov’s memoirs are valuable both in terms of literary merit and in terms of truthful testimony about the aspirations and feelings of the author himself and the people close to him, about real historical facts and personalities with whom his fate and the fate of his home university were closely related. L. Chernov wanted to publish his memoirs in the form of an illustrated photo album, back in the 1980s. However, something then thwarted his intentions. At this stage, with the permission of the artist’s family, one of the fragments of such valuable material – the author’s theses to the memoirs and the first section of the main text is published. Unique photo documents from the artist’s albums are published together with the text.

As a rule the effort to revive the vanishing art of the people in European countries has met with failure. Popular artistic handicraft is the result of the native material needs of the folk, as well as of their spiritual need for expression in the production of beautiful things. When the life of a tribe which has achieved through the centuries a harmonious equilibrium and unity becomes violently disturbed by outside influences, the chances of preserving the original manual arts are diminished or indeed lost.

ABSTRAK             Salah satu penyebab keberadaan kesenian Genggong menjadi tidak populer dalam kehidupan masyarakat masa Global adalah peran pendidikan yang diduga tidak berpihak pada seni Genggong seperti di Desa Batuan. Seni pertunjukan Genggong Batuan di era tahun 1973 sempat menjadi karya seni pertunjukan yang mengundang perhatian khususnya pada pertunjukan seni hiburan. Kekhasan dan keunikan bentuk karya ternyata tidak cukup mampu mempertahankan populeritasnya di panggung hiburan.             Kajian tulisan ini berangkat dari metode kualitatif yang dirancang guna memperoleh jawaban secara lebih mendalam. Analisis data dilakukan dengan memperhatikan keabsahan data langsung di lapangan selain dokumentasi tersimpan. Teori yang dipakai membedah persoalan kuasa adalah diambil dari teori kuasa yang menekankan pada ranah kuasa dan juga habitus yang terjadi di masyarakat.             Hasil akhir kajian ini adalah temuan yang berhubungan dengan proses pendidikan seni tradisional Genggong nyatanya tidak terkait dengan aktivitas kegiatan yang hiburan. Keterlantaran yang diakibatnya oleh perubahan gaya hidup dan struktur yang kurang berpihak pada seni Genggong Desa Batuan. ABSTRACT One of the causes of the existence of Genggong art became unpopular in the lives of the people of the Global period was the role of education which was allegedly not in favor of Genggong art such as in the Village of Batuan. The performance of Genggong Batuan in the 1973 era had become a performance art work that drew attention especially to entertainment art performances. The peculiarity and uniqueness of the form of work turned out to be not enough to maintain its popularity on the entertainment stage. The study of this paper departs from qualitative methods designed to obtain answers in more depth. Data analysis is done by paying attention to the validity of direct data in the field besides the stored documentation. The theory used to dissect the issue of power is taken from the theory of power which emphasizes the realm of power and also habitus that occurs in society. The final result of this study is that findings related to the process of traditional Genggong art education are in fact not related to entertainment activities. The negligence that was caused by changes in lifestyle and structure was not in favor of Genggong Desa Batuan art.

In 1943 when Universidad de Chile celebrated its centennial all Latin American nations were invited to participate in the commemorative events. One of the most interesting was the Exhibition of American Popular Art at the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes(National Museum of Fine Arts) which brought together the objects from participating countries. The Universidad de Chile´s invitation asked countries to send functional objects that were part of the people´s daily lives. The exhibition was very successful, critically acclaimed, and highly attended. But above all, it planted the seed for what was to become the Museo de Artes Populares Americanas(American Popular Art Museum) functioning to this day.In this essay I would like to highlight a series of contexts, actors and institutions behind the phenomena: specific incarnations of Pan Americanism during the Second World War; the Latin American perspective in general and in particular, the Chilean perspective of the university´s role in society; the new value of Latin American arts since the 20thcentury. These contexts and events are useful to shed light on the “social life” of the objects that were part of the exhibition and they also help us to understand a dynamic definition of art which emerged from the recognition of craft in use as worthy of exhibition in a National Fine Arts Museum and then to remain at the permanent collection of a popular art museum.The radical importance of this essay is that it constitutes an example of a thing which represents not just art but also other values. In a midst of the World War II, Latin American Popular Art represented peace. The objects of the exhibition were seen as incarnations of Latin American cultural identity and historiography has gone on to view Latin American culture as a specific contribution to peace effort.

Soviet authorities have always maintained that their national theater is a truly popular form of art, enjoyed by broad masses of the people. This view has been expressed or implied in every official statement on the medium for many years. “Soviet theatrical art,” according to a 1958 Central Committee statement, “has become a truly popular art, close and comprehensible to the broad masses of the toilers…. Our theater, by carrying the most progressive ideas of socialism, peace, and democracy to the masses, has rightly earned widespread recognition, and become an important factor in the development of all progressive art… “
