CONCENTRATION OF WILL

12.07.2023 - On going

National Academy of Arts of Ukraine

The extensive exhibition project "Concentration of Will" is being held across three organizing institutions: the first stage took place in May at the Institute of Contemporary Art Problems, the second in June at the Center for Contemporary Art M17, and the final part of the exhibition project opens in July at the National Academy of Arts of Ukraine. Each of the three locations features a unique list of participants and an exhibition of artistic works.

The project's idea is to showcase how contemporary art reveals the Ukrainian vision of willpower as a mental force that assists today in the liberation struggle of the Ukrainian people against Russian aggression.
