Art in the Service of Medicine:
Ukrainian painter Iryna Malynovska merges her passion for art and her commitment to philanthropy through a series of charity auctions and exhibitions. The next sale, scheduled on drouot.com from 25 February to 03 March 2024, is not only a high-profile cultural event but also a mission of the heart: to support the Kiev medical centre specialising in paediatric heart surgery under the direction of the dedicated Dr Illya Yemets. Since 2016, Malynovska has distinguished herself as an honorary member of this institution, actively contributing to its life-saving cause.
A major challenge:
Annually, Ukraine faces a major medical challenge: 3.5 to 4,000 newborns suffer from congenital heart disease, and of these, 30% are in critical condition. These figures are not just statistics; they represent the lives of children and families plunged into anguish and uncertainty, waiting for vital surgery.
The Ukrainian Children's Cardiac Center: A Pillar of Hope
The Kiev medical centre is a veritable Noah's Ark for these children. With a team of experienced paediatric cardiac specialists, the centre offers comprehensive treatment for patients of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. Equipped with the most advanced diagnostic technologies, such as electrocardiography, echocardiography and many others, the centre guarantees rapid and accurate diagnosis, paving the way for successful surgery.
Medical and surgical advances:
The centre's technical advances make it possible to carry out all forms of cardiosurgical operations, including the most complex and innovative procedures. These cutting-edge surgical capabilities are crucial to saving lives and giving children a chance of normal growth and development.
An appeal for solidarity:
Iryna Malynovska's auction is more than an artistic event; it is a demonstration of human solidarity, a call to action for those who are in a position to help. Participating in this sale means making a direct contribution to funding treatments and operations that can transform and save children's lives.
Iryna Malynovska's initiative transcends art to touch life itself, underlining the power of community and caring. This event is a unique opportunity to combine aesthetics and altruism, where every work sold is one step closer to helping a child recover.
