This information was taken from a Ukrainian government document. The
document was translated from Ukrainian into English and edited by the
www.ArtUkraine.com Information Service (ARTUIS), E. Morgan Williams,

This material can be used but only with the proper credits above.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The fifteen or more models created for the competition
above have been viewed in Kyiv, Ukraine by a large number of observers.
Most of the observers believe the models are not world class at all, do not
represent the major human tragedies that are being memorialized in a proper
way, are not adequate at all and fall far below what one would expect from
such a historical memorial complex.
The proposed location of the historical memorial complex is also not
adequate at all. There is not any public transportation to the sight and it
is
in plain view of the large Iron Lady in Kyiv. The location for the complex
needs to be changed. All in all the movement by the government of Ukraine
to built a memorial historical complex has been very discouraging to those
who have observed what is going on in Kyiv. Is is sad and depressing to
watch.
It is very important that people contact the members of the Jury as soon as
possible to let them know about these major and important concerns.
