Cracow. Get to know your neighbor. Closing of the exhibition in Ukraine
“Ukraine. Mutual gaze “on the title of the exhibition, which will end this Sunday at the International Cultural Center at 25 Main Square in Krakow. So there are still days to be taken with a comprehensive list, only a few more identities of our popular – unknown, closest neighbors. – Thanks to this mutual perspective, we become even closer to each other – argue the organizers.
FLSZ – Appendix Appendix. Applications can now be submitted
Ukrainians. Present – absent. Blended into the landscape of city streets, universities, workplaces, and our services more and more often, also in families. The wave of emigration that came from the east, including for the revolution of the year 2013-14, repair of the Dignity of the Russian repair and repair of the year, and local service also to maintain changes and changes also in this country. Never before after WWII. How to meet, understand and understand the newcomers? What works about them and their homeland torn by the winds of history
It is hard not to get the impression that the process of assimilation of emigrants from Ukraine through Ukraine is (and is) automatic. Aliens appear and blend in with the landscape. Apart from sociological analyzes – and on the contrary – unprocessed, unfathomable content – it is difficult to find stories about who our neighbors are. In the collection between the Poles, Ukraine was stuck somewhere between the stereotypical cleaners and the Banderites prejudiced against us, farmers Jurko Bohun and Julia Tymoshenko. Equality as anonymous: from “peasant blacks approaching the Polish court”, through “Ruthenians” (all east of Poland were referred to by this name), the crowd in the Kiev Maidan until today the collective, among us as emigrants from the occupied, threatened by the Russian invasion at the country level.
This stereotyping resulted in mutual misunderstanding, misunderstanding, lack of mutual understanding and acceptance. Above all, however, indifference, having more information about the silence of “consent to acquisition” than tolerance and tolerance.
This is why it is a good thing that the emerging projects such as the exhibition “Ukraine. Mutual gaze at”, which is being finalized at the International Cultural Center in Krakow. We were informed of our neighbors other than the years in Ukraine, taught to perceive them “Never before have Polish competition been presented by consoles that would tell so much about. Cossacks, steppe and Ukrainian huts from the brush of classics are juxtaposed with the works of avant-garde artists of the beginning of the 20th century and emerging contemporaries” – we read in the organizer’s materials.
Only a few more days we are to see the most outstanding Russian works from Taras Shevchenko, fascinated by Swedish realist artists – Ilia Riepin, through the beginning of the 20th century – Heorhi Narbut, Wiktor Palmov, Lev Kramarenko to contemporaries such as Oleh Tistol, Roman Minin, Anatoly Kryvolap, Włada Rałko or the collective “Open Group”. Additionally, on January 13 (18:00) there was also a meeting “All Hope in Ukraine”, during which participants are to look for answers to questions about the identity of Ukrainians in the era of Russian aggression against this country.
The exhibition “Ukraine. Mutual Looks ”can be visited until January 16 at the MCK Gallery at Rynek Główny 25 in Krakow.
