A CLOSER LOOK: CONFLICTED ART FROM UKRAINE
May '24 - December '24 

Beyond the statistics in the news, A Closer Look delves into the core of existence, reshaping both communities and individual lives. Previously ordinary scenes now carry the weight of violence, as even the simplest activities are tinged with the looming threat of conflict. The once-familiar comforts of home no longer guarantee safety, and familiar streets now serve as evacuation routes. Businesses cautiously navigate their operations, responding to the ominous threat of unexpected attack. Assaults on civilian populations and vital infrastructure have tragically become commonplace. While individuals may go about their routines, glancing at their phones as usual, the content they receive paints a starkly different reality: warnings of imminent danger and devastation, rendering life untenable.

A Closer Look: Conflicted Art from Ukraine presents artistic responses to war through the works of 13 contemporary Ukrainian artists from the frontline. Through photography, video, painting, sculpture, and installation, these artists explore critical issues on the fault lines of conflict. Their works initiate a dialogue between viewers and the profound realities of conflict, encouraging and modeling resilience in the face of adversity.
