The early years of the sculptor's life and work. Vasyl Borodai is a People's Artist of Ukraine, a corresponding member of the USSR Academy of Arts, and a veteran. He came to the art institute after the war, and took up military themes only 10 years later - his memories were too painful. He is the author of monuments to fallen partisans and soldiers, a series of graphic and sculptural works "Across Egypt," portraits of prominent people of Ukraine, and a monument to legendary heroes, the founders of Kyiv. The fate of the work of sculptor Vasyl Borodai is interesting from the point of view of continuing the Soviet tradition of bans. His monument to the October Revolution on Independence Square was one of the first monuments demolished in Ukraine since Ukrainian independence. His other works, such as the monument to the Chekists and Motherland, are still the subject of controversy as monuments to the Soviet past.
