The day after tomorrow we are waiting for you at the first screening of our film program

On August 13 at 6:30 PM, we will watch two films by Kharkiv artists Andriy Rachynskyi and Daniil Revkovskyi — “Labor Protection in the Dnipropetrovsk Region” and “Rattling, Knocking, Arguing and Burbling.”

“Occupational Safety in Dnipropetrovsk Region” (2018) is a compilation of videos found on social networks, filmed by employees of industrial enterprises in the Dnipropetrovsk region and residents of nearby areas. Workers and local residents used their devices to record everyday production and emergency situations. In turn, the artists revealed the video authors themselves in their work — their voice-overs, which record their reaction to what they saw and the conditions in which they work.

“Clang, Knock, Argument and Bubbling” (2021) are four video novels where the artists try on the roles of the last inhabitants of the Earth. Around them are the landscapes of Kryvyi Rih with abandoned pipes, dirty water and fields red with ore. Among themselves, they speak only with gurgling, sounds and shouts, which are very reminiscent of the conversation of drunks in a sleeping area.

The first video work lasts 22 minutes. 14 sec., second — 9 min. 28 sec.

WHEN: Wednesday, August 13, 6:30 PM
WHERE: DCCC Cinema (first floor), Krutogornyy Uzviz 21a, Dnipro. Entrance through glass sliding doors from the side of Uspenskaya Square

The cinema space can accommodate 50 people, so entrance is only upon registration and a free donation (before the screening): https://forms.gle/rRx66DVmckpDzcDU9

The film screening program is implemented within the framework of the exhibition “Looking into the Gaps II” by curator Nikita Kadan.

The exhibition project “Looking into the Gaps” was initiated by Voloshyn Gallery in 2024. The exhibition at the Artsvit Gallery and Dnipro Center for Contemporary Culture was realized in collaboration with Voloshyn Gallery (Kyiv) and Assortment Room (Ivano-Frankivsk).

The day after tomorrow we are waiting for you at the first screening of our film program

The programme examines the colonial influence on several generations of Ukrainians from different angles of view, with particular attention to Dnipro and the eastern regions of Ukraine. Many of us grew up in an environment where Russian narratives dominated in education, in the media, and in the art. Today, we critically rethinking the contours and extent of this influence and learning to distinguish what is ours from what was imposed on us. This is not only a cultural process but also a personal one: a process of reclaiming an identity alienated by Moscow-centrism and russification.
