Art-publishing project "CD "A.A.Osmerkin Art-Memorial Museum",
presented on the 25th anniversary of the museum, is the result of about two-year work of
the museum creative team led by the director Vita Chernova. She was initiator of the
project creation and also acted as an editor.
Selection of photos and document materials was made by the main curator of
the funds Irina Dyachuk. The author of the majority of articles and art studies is Andrey
Nadezhdin - museum researcher, artist and art historian, member of the National Union of
artists of Ukraine. Andrey Nadezhdin also developed art design of the disk. Certainly, the
project wouldn't be possible without photo-reproductions of paintings of A.A.Osmerkin and
his students. The photo-reproductions were made by Ihor Demchuk - Kirovograd well-known
photojournalist, member of the National union of photo-artists and journalists of Ukraine.

made computer disk layout. The texts are adapted into three languages - Ukrainian,

University.
