We selected letters from the 1960s and 1970s from several archivalfiles, and after that, when it was possible, we determined the dates when the lettershad been written, if they were not indicated. The letters were arranged according to the chronology we propose, all addresses and dates on the stamps of envelopes and postcards are indicated in the comments to them. The methodology of the study lies in the usage of historical methods, art study analysis methods and empirical perception methods.The scientific novelty. For the first time, epistolary of the talented Ukrain-ian artist Antonina Ivanova to Oksana Pavlenko during the period of 1965-1971 is of-fered for publication; the main subject of the artist’s letters regarding her creative andworking problems, details of her everyday life and biography were determined. Un-til now, it seems impossible to write an extensive biography of Antonina Ivanova, asthere are many unknown facts from the artist’s work, it is still impossible to compile a more or less complete register of her works for various reasons, and as a consequence - to carry out their scientific attribution. The publication of letters is one of the steps in the study of the artist’s creative path.Conclusions.

Antonina Ivanova's letters make it possible to trace at all levels the emergence and arising of interest to the Boychukists movement artists in the 1960s and 1970s and its studies.
