The School of Kyiv program features works by more than 100 Ukrainian and international artists about various issues in Ukraine and throughout the world within six thematic categories:
- The School of Realism
- The School of the Lonesome
- The School of Landscape
- The School of Image and Evidence
- The School of the Displaced
- The School of Abducted Europe
The exhibited pieces were created by their authors and public intellectuals in collaboration with the general public through a format of open forums.
The program was created as an independent project by curators Hedwig Saxenhuber and Georg Schoellhammer and was organised together with the Kiev-based Visual Culture Research Centre. The organisers now plan to open a series of institutions across Europe to extend the project to a larger audience.
The Georgian-Ukrainian expo within the Biennial was organised with the support of Georgia’s Ministry of Culture and Monument Protection and will on public display until November 1.
