Secondary Archive join Manifesta 14 Prishtina 2022

Secondary Archive join Manifesta 14 Prishtina 2022!

We are happy to announce that this unique project initiated by Katarzyna Kozyra Foundation is on the programme of Manifesta Biennial that this year will take place in Pristina, Kosovo. The 100-day programme will be spread across the city in different venues including the former industrial site of the Brick Factory and the Grand Hotel or an iconic hotel built during the Yugoslav period.

Secondaryarchive.org is an online platform that showcases voices and profiles of three generations of women artists from Central and Eastern Europe. During the last two years the archive has gathered hundreds of artistic statements from women from the region both internationally recognised and those who remain unknown. With the help of Manifesta 14, we want to go beyond the current condition of the archive which is tied to its virtuality, and present the archive in a narrative environment.

Manifesta 14 Prishtina is set to open July 22. More information about the Secondary Archive exhibition will be revealed gradually as the opening of the biennale approaches.

Secondary Archive project at Manifesta 14 Prishtina is organised by: Katarzyna Kozyra Foundation (Poland) along with international partners: Tirana Art Lab (Albania), Ambasada Kultury (Belarus), MeetFactory (Czech Republic), Easttopics (Hungary), Oral History Kosovo(Kosovo), CZKD (Serbia), BJÖRNSONOVA (Slovakia), Галерея Артсвіт (Ukraine).

Secondary Archive is supported by the International Visegrad Fund

Expanded Edition of Ukrainian Female Artists' Names on Secondary Archive

The new edition (IV) of Secondary Archive Ukraine focuses on the theme of return:

— the return of artists who have become military service members to the art field through bringing visibility to their practice and personal histories;

— the return of artists who were born or professionally realized abroad but maintain strong ties to Ukraine - not only through their identity, but also through the themes they address (migration, trauma, periphery, etc.). In this case, the return is understood as discursive and intellectual re-engagement with the Ukrainian art context;

— drawing attention to artists who have remained on the margins of visibility and outside dominant or visible communities.

Artsvit for Kids Autumn Programme: Legends About the City

On September 26, Artsvit for Kids launches its autumn art programme «Legends about the City», led by Alina Shtefan. The programme invites children to explore the mysteries and legends of the city and discover its places of inspiration.

Meetings will take place every Saturday for 10 weeks: at 11:00 AM for children aged 6–9, and at 1:00 PM for children aged 10–13.

We will discover what secrets the Great River has hidden beneath the water, build cardboard bridges, write a short diary of a future traveller, create our own tram line with unusual stops, invent their names, and draw a map of the starry Dnipro. There will also be many other discoveries, adventures, encounters, and creative experiments along the way!
