«Secondary Archive. Women Artists in War»: 15 new names from Ukraine will be added to our virtual archive of artists from Eastern and Central Europe

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. 

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!
