Ucranianos en Argentina
The Ukrainian community in Argentina is the second most important in the world and represents one percent of our population. Some of his main legacies are the introduction of cooperatives and the creation of the famous musical group “Camerata Bariloche”.
One of the most important contributions of Ukrainian immigrants in Argentina is political. It was this community that introduced the concept and idea of cooperatives in the country. The first law that regulated cooperatives in Argentina was passed in 1926. At that time, in western Ukraine there was already a strong cooperative movement and it was immigrants who implemented it in the country.
The Ukrainian migratory waves were also marked by politics and wars, and they followed one after another from the 19th century to the present: from 1897 to 1914; from 1920 to 1939; from 1946 to 1960, and the last from 1994. But Ukrainian nationality was not always recorded in the records. It is one of the few that does not appear in the National Immigration Registry, because Ukraine lost its independence in the second half of the 19th century and regained it only after the fall of the Berlin Wall, with the end of the Soviet Union. In that time period, many immigrants arrived with Austro-Hungarian, Russian or Polish passports.
The first immigrants moved to Misiones and dedicated themselves to agriculture. In the subsequent waves it was when the Ukrainian immigrants settled in and around the BA City. These immigrants had another profile: they were no longer farmers but technicians, professionals and artists who saw in the city more attractive opportunities for labor insertion. And they knew how to take advantage of them.
Precisely, half of the Ukrainian immigrants who arrived in Argentina settled in BA and Greater Buenos Aires. There are about 150.000 who settled, mainly, in the Almagro and Palermo neighborhoods. There are the main institutions of the community and many of the social and cultural activities of the descendants of Ukrainians take place.

Of deep religious devotion, the Ukrainians who have come to Argentina since 1897 belong mostly to three Christian communities: the Catholic of the Byzantine Rite (Greek Catholics), which is the most numerous; the Orthodox, with its three independent churches (Autocephalous, the Kyiv Patriarchate and the Moscow Patriarchate) and the Evangelical Baptist Church.
The cathedrals of the Ukrainian Catholic Church and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Buenos Aires stand out architecturally. They are a valuable contribution to the landscape of the neighborhoods of Vélez Sarsfield and Boedo, since Ukrainian artists have captured their culture in them.
The Catholic Cathedral of the “Patronage of the Virgin”, located in Vélez Sarsfield, was designed and built in the Ukrainian Baroque style by the architect Victor Hrynenko. With 485 m2 covered, it is the largest Ukrainian temple in Argentina. In this Cathedral is the mosaic-image of the Mother of God created by the teacher Borys Kriukov who was crowned in 1987 by John Paul II. The Orthodox Church of Santa Pokrova, in Boedo, was built between 1973 and 1980, also by Arch. Victor Hrynenko.

Last weekend I attended to an exposition of her:
In the 1930s, Ana Sokol ran a small and modest hairdresser on the first block of Avenida de Mayo. Near the port, he had many sailors as clients, but also gentlemen like Manuel Mujica Laínez. The former came for practical necessities, and others, attracted by the magnet that this cheerful and talkative Ukrainian had: her art. Sokol cut their hair and in the same “small, variegated, amazing place” –as Manucho describes it - he painted small naive tempera : animals, invented biblical scenes, couples and angels drawn with candor and mastery.
In the 60s and 70s she enjoyed a certain popularity. From the text of Mujica Lainez it is known that she was born in Lwow, in 1902, and that she had a blacksmith husband and two children. In 1922 he came with his family to Buenos Aires. “Seven years later, she applied herself to study hairdressing art, as her health did not allow her to face heavier jobs. It was so good for him that since 1935 he has had his own premises. Other concerns, however, requested her in her spare time. He began to embroider, to weave rugs, to invent paper flowers. Five decades ago, he discovered that he could paint. The wonder of the colors removed from his memory the image of the mother and the three remote brothers, from the misery of Ukraine. In 1963 he stopped painting. Leonor Vassena –painter and gallery owner– encouraged her to do it again, providing her with fabrics and colors. An unusual world sprouted from his brushes ”.

Their ancestors converted centuries ago, when western Ukraine was a part of Poland (or, in a lesser extent, Hungary).
