FROM THE BATTLEFIELD
From The Battlefield is an artistic program between Ukraine and the Netherlands that amplifies the direct testimony of those who evidence the war in Ukraine and those who are fighting to protect freedom and hope. To understand the situation we offer the practice of direct dialogue, as an exhibition and a series of public talks that will let to know the real situation and to gain more knowledge about Ukrainian culture. We focus on the strength of making small decisions of dignity and freedom when also sacrificing for victory in the circumstances of war.

Cultivating small and fragile experiences that help individuals and communities live through inhumane conditions (these experiences grow into volunteering, crowdfunding and self-organized initiatives) can be as significant as earning the world's solidarity attention or receiving material and tactical support.

The programme is supported by Culture of Solidarity Foundation, Mondriaan Funds, Goethe Insitute. Location partners: LocHal, De Pont Museum and Cinecitta. Curator: Maria Vtorushina.
