Artsvit Gallery is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year! We have decided to mark this milestone with a programme of public events covering the main areas of our work, thereby demonstrating that Artsvit continues its activities despite everything and highlighting what the gallery has been doing over the years. These include exhibitions, educational programmes for children and adults, residencies, and additions to the gallery's collection. And you, our visitors, are an integral part of this story!
You have the opportunity to receive one of the works from the etchingingroom1 graphic studio, namely an etching entitled ‘Bunker’!
As part of the ‘Bus station’ exhibition, we are launching a raffle, which you can enter by making a donation. The minimum donation is 200 UAH. However, your chances of winning can double or even triple in proportion to the size of your donation.
We invite you to the opening of the exhibition by the Kyiv graphic studio etchingroom1, ‘Bus Station,’ which will take place on 23 June at 7 p.m. at the Artsvit Gallery. It will run until 23 September 2023.
The NGO Kultura Medialna, in collaboration with the Artsvit Gallery, has announced an open call for artists to participate in an art residency in Dnipro. During the residency, artists aged 18-25 who are taking their first steps in art will be able to attend a series of educational events and work on their own projects.
Last week, our project ‘Gallery Talks’ came to an end. Over the course of three months, we held 12 meetings in two formats — lectures and discussions — where we raised many important topics.
For three weeks, visitors to the Artsvit Gallery had the opportunity to feel like authors and create their own ‘imaginary’ exhibition in partnership with artificial intelligence. As a result of this creative collaboration, almost 400 exhibitions were created. The final stage of the interactive project ‘The Exhibition I Would Like to See’ will be the installation of a visual collection in the gallery space.
The topic of the previous conversation in the gallery proved its relevance and importance for discussion — at that time, we considered how artificial intelligence (AI) is implemented in visual art. The conclusion of the discussion was the recognition of this technology as a partner, a useful tool in creativity. However, AI is used in various fields and is currently having an impact on our entire culture, forcing us to rethink a number of questions to which answers seemed to have already been found.
That is why this Saturday, at the final meeting of the Gallery Talks project, we invite you to discuss the impact of artificial intelligence on our lives in general.
In our opinion, this topic deserves a separate discussion and is in line with the recently presented interactive project ‘The Exhibition I Would Like to See’. After the discussion, we also invite you to try to generate your own ‘imaginary’ exhibition using artificial intelligence — to get acquainted with it in practice, so to speak.
We assume that each of you has something that made a strong impression on you: an exhibition or installation, a project, a performance, a lecture, or perhaps an intensive course, or even an entire residency. You don't necessarily have to like that ‘something’; perhaps, on the contrary, what you saw greatly upset you — that is, it provoked a strong reaction. We invite you to discuss this this Saturday — during Gallery talks!
We invite you to join the exhibition, where everyone can become an author — to embody their vision of the exposition. We invite you to imagine what you would like to see in the gallery space.
The opening of the interactive project ‘The Exhibition I Would Like to See’ at the Artsvit Gallery will take place on 19 May at 7 p.m. It will run until 10 June 2023.
“Curator” and “curatorship” are perhaps two of the most important concepts in contemporary art. However, for the general public, they are either somewhat unclear or completely unfamiliar. Moreover, they have a long history, and over time, the term ‘curator’ has undergone certain transformations, so the practice of curating is now understood as a newly formed field of activity that is fundamentally different from its previous forms.
This Saturday, we offer to shed some light on this important phenomenon in the art world, to find out who a curator is and what they do.
Konstantin Zorkin's exhibition ‘Protective Layer’ has ended — Artsvit is moving to a new exposition. But don't be sad, because we have already started preparing a new exhibition for you!
