About this Event
Art historian Svitlana Biedariev discusses this new volume, which traces the development of art practices in Ukraine from the 2004 Orange Revolution, through the 2013–2014 Revolution of Dignity, to the ongoing Russian war of aggression.
Contributors explore how transformations of identity, the emergence of participatory democracy, relevant changes to cultural institutions, and the realization of the necessity of decolonial release have influenced the focus and themes of contemporary art practices in Ukraine. The book will be of interest to scholars of art history, Eastern European studies, cultural studies, decolonial theory, and postcolonial studies.
The presentation highlights artists whose works are featured in the book as, well as in the Zimmerli Art Museum's collection of Soviet Nonconformist Art and Arts of Eurasia.
Free & open to the public. Visit the event page for all details, including parking registration.
