Vasyl Kachurovskyi was born in 1906 in Pennsylvania.^[1]

He studied at the Mukachevo Commercial Academy and a commercial institute in Prague (1930). During 1938 to 1939, he was active in the banking sector and the representation of the Carpatho-Ukrainian government in Prague.^[1]

From 1945, he was in Germany, and in 1950, he was in Chicago (United States). From 1971 to 1982, he co-founded and became the first curator of the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art in Chicago.^[1][2][3]

Kachurovskyi's works are characterized by mood, abstraction, and the simplification of forms, which lead to a philosophical understanding. He was a participant in the "Dolya" group exhibitions. Solo exhibitions took place in Detroit and Chicago (2011, posthumously).^[1]
