    1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024
    What Ukrainian folk art is called depends on its medium. Named after the village from which it emerged, Petrykivka is a type of decorative painting that often features colorful flowers and birds against a white background. The name for decorating eggs is pysanky, and vyshyvka is the term for decorative embroidery. Explore a large selection of folk art on 1stDibs.
  • What is the difference between fine and folk art?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
    The difference between fine and folk art comes down primarily to function. Fine artists produce paintings, prints, sculptures and other artworks to express an idea or concept, communicate a message or tell a story. With folk art, artists are usually more interested in following cultural traditions than self-expression. Pieces of folk art often have more practical uses compared to works of fine art, such as quilts and furniture. Other examples of folk art include pottery, masks, textiles and carvings. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of fine and folk art.
  • What materials are used in folk art?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Among the materials used in folk art are cloth, wood, paper, clay and metal.
