Russia has been waging a war of aggression in Ukraine since February. Millions of people are on the run. There is no end in sight. In order to present positions of Ukrainian artists, to examine nation-building processes as well as the legacy of post-Soviet socialization, the Stiftung Neue Kunst Berlin-Brandenburg (SNKBB) has created the exhibition "POSTOST: Україна / Ukraine". All proceeds will be donated directly to the Ukrainian Cultural Community (UCC) in Berlin (less costs incurred). The exhibition brings together positions of primarily Ukrainian artists, which are shaped by the course of Ukrainian history and post-Soviet socialization. The result is a prismatic view of histories of identity, uprootedness, identification, and belonging.
