WAR IN UKRAINE: HORROR AND HOPE ON DISPLAY

Posted by: Giorgio Re

After the debut at Superstudio Village "Art against violence - World with Women", an exhibition of interactive contemporary art made in Ukraine is going to move from 12 to 17 November to the Villa Reale in Monza, with all its emotional fullness, the horrors of war, memories and hopes expressed by photographs, paintings, installations, performances. A great part of the involved artists are women, the first victims of violence, who responded with powerful and, at times, poetic images and visions. Not to be missed.

 The exhibition curated by Giorgio Grasso is part of the "Ukrainian Art in Italy" project, conceived  by the associations VITAUK, Let's Do It Ukraine and Let's Do Italy, which, as mentioned, has already been proposed  - as an absolute preview in Italy -  the first week of last October at the Superstudio Village at Via Negrotto in Milan, a space which is going to become our fourth hub in the city, hosting Ukrainian refugees with their children since the beginning of the conflict. It was a significant and intense week, in which the exhibition of works by contemporary Ukrainian artists was connected with moments dedicated to fashion, prose and poetry, music and testimonies on what we want to define "open wounds" even today, nine months after the outbreak of hostilities.

Horror means violence, which affects women all too often, even more so when the global context is war. Violence against women, women in troubles… a difficult issue to deal with, which nevertheless takes place with considerable frequency in many of the Superstudio's cultural and artistic initiatives. With an aim of solidarity, but also of conscious hope.
