The influence of the avant­-garde legacy on the visual language of the pieces, featuring Christian characters and motifs, is being consi­dered. The range of works by masters from Kyiv and Odesa of the 1960s—1980s are analyzed to demonstrate the widespread of the expressionistic tendencies in the art of this period.

Keywords: Ukrainian art, second avant-­garde, non-conformism, Christian theme, expressionism.
