Methodology of the research is the use of formal and comparative methods for studying the colors and their combining, identifying abstract elements of geometric ornamentation of Ukrainian Pysanky, compositional motifs, images etc. Scien-tific novelty lies in the analysis of the origins of abstract art in Ukraine through the example of authentic works of Ukrain-ian folk art culture. This has made it possible to reveal the main, historically linked, artistic and symbolic components. Conclusions. The study of geometric ornamentation of Ukrainian Pysanky shows that the selection of colours and their combinations, crystallized during centuries in folk art, together combined with the archaic geometric forms has laid the foundation for style forming component of modern Ukrainian abstract art.
