Taras Shevchenko on the barricades

By the 200th anniversary of Shevchenko we installed his statue on Khreschatyk Street in Kiev at the headquarters of the revolution (City Hall).
The composition consists of pieces of real Kiev’s barricades and Shevchenko figure in bronze. The total height is about 3 meters. Artist - Igor Grechanyk.

His words, that carry the spirit of freedom, inspire us! 
Fight – and you will overcome! 
God helps you!
True is on your side, and glory
And holy will!
(Taras Shevchenko, November 18, 1845
This is my interpretation, non-professional)
