The Wende Museum of the Cold War announced on August 5, 2016, the recent donation by the Abby J. and Alan D. Levy Family of two important works from their significant art collection. Wende Board member Alan D. Levy is chairman of Tishman International Companies. The two oil paintings, 'The Asylum', 1982 by Stanislav Molodykh (born 1942) and 'At the Station' (1950) by Ilya Abelevich Lukomsky (1906-1954), are major additions to The Wende Museum's collection of official and unofficial artwork from Cold War-era Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union.
Molodykh's unusual subject matter recalls a difficult time in his life when he entered a psychiatric hospital. Lukomsky, a famous graduate of the Moscow Surikov Institute, was a member of the Union of Artists in Russia. He was known for his group portraits and depictions of people in real-life situations.
The Wende Museum was founded in 2002 with a mission to preserve the art, culture, and history from the Soviet Bloc countries, inspire a broad understanding of the period, and explore its enduring legacy.
