A curatorial tour is an opportunity to visit the exhibition while also hearing about its creation and the key ideas embedded in the project by curator Nikita Kadan. We will walk through all the galleries, discuss the works on display, and pay attention to subtle details.
Looking into the Gaps is an exhibition cycle that approaches the history and present of Ukrainian art as an ornament of ruptures, losses, and absences, in which what exists serves merely as a frame for what is missing. The central motif of the Lviv part of the project, presented at Jam Factory Art Center, is the theme of loneliness and the relationship between the “I” and the «we» as shaped by the experience of war.
The number of visitors is limited. Free admission with prior registration.
Tour date: February 22 at 16:00
Location: Jam Factory Art Center, 124 B. Khmelnytskoho St.
We will meet the group at the art center reception.
