Thu 17.07., 18h l MQ Raum D
Free entry
The Ukrainian multimedia artist Anton Lapov, who will be living and working in the MuseumsQuartier in July 2025 as part of the MQ Artist-in-Residence program, will present his completed and ongoing projects in an artist talk entitled “East-Ukrainian Complex”.These will be reflected in a broader narrative about the marginalized art and music scenes in Luhansk and Donetsk from the early 1990s to the present.He pays particular attention to non-institutional forms of artistic self-organization as well as strategies of care and resilience developed within the art scene of the Donbas - a region that has been in the shadow of war for over a decade.
With this event, Lapov continues his ongoing research on the art history of the Donbas, which has already been published in various contexts.
We cordially invite artists, researchers, cultural workers, and anyone interested in contemporary art and the cultural history of Eastern Europe to take part in the discussion in Room D in the MuseumsQuartier.
The event is free of charge in cooperation with the Office Ukraine and will be held in English.
