His artwork, rich in color and infused with traditional Ukrainian motifs, beautifully complements the narrative. A rare gem of mid-20th century Ukrainian émigré literature, this book is a vibrant testament to cultural heritage preserved across oceans.Edvard Kozak, 1902-1992 (pseudonyms: EKO, Mamai, Hryts Zozulia, Maik Chichka, Avenir Lushniak, Kosy) was a multifaceted artist-painter, caricaturist, illustrator, film animator, graphic artist, and writer. He served with the Ukrainian Sich Riflemen and the Ukrainian Galician Army before studying at the Lviv Studio-School of O. Novakivsky (1927-1930). In the 1930s, Kozak contributed to Lviv's satirical magazines and illustrated numerous publications, including "Ukrains'ka biblioteka" and "Velyka istoriia Ukrainy." A member of ANUM from 1932, he exhibited his work frequently. After relocating to Kraków in 1939, he joined the art group "Zarevo" and later returned to Lviv, participating in exhibitions with SUOM. Emigrating to Germany in 1944, he led USOM and published the magazine "Lys." After moving to the United States in 1951, Kozak continued his artistic endeavors, including the publication of "Lys Mykyta," and wrote humorous poems and stories. His body of work also includes children's book illustrations, animated films, caricatures, and a series of postcards commemorating the Ukrainian Sich Riflemen.As of August 2024, not in OCLC.
