	The project was initiated by a group of Belarusian professionals and experts in the sphere of contemporary art. Our goal is to create an open public museum focused on research, archiving, preservation, support, development and demonstration of Belarusian contemporary art. Perceiving museum as a process and a community, as a joint experience of practicing public history and a way of understanding the world as well as respecting art/culture as a right of every person the team sees and develops the Open Muzej (OM) as a nomadic infrastructure. 
	
	Праект ініцыяваны групай беларускіх прафесіянала:к і эксперта:к у сферы сучаснага мастацтва. Наша мэта — стварыць адкрыты публічны музей, арыентаваны на даследаванне, архіваванне, захаванне, падтрымку, развіццё і дэманстрацыю беларускага сучаснага мастацтва. Успрымаючы музей як працэс і супольнасць, як сумесны вопыт практыкі публічнай гісторыі і спосабу разумення свету, а таксама паважаючы мастацтва/культуру як права кожнага чалавека, каманда бачыць і развівае Open Muzej (OM) як качавую інфраструктуру.

	THE INTERNATIONAL COALITION OF CULTURAL WORKERS IN SOLIDARITY WITH UKRAINE antiwarcoaltion.art is an open online platform that collects, shares and distributes statements against war created by artists from all over the world. Driven by the Russian aggression and war against Ukraine, this platform presents an opportunity to protest against war, dictatorship, and authoritarianism. It is an opportunity to express solidarity with those in Ukraine who are affected by the Russian military aggression, and with those resisting colonial, patriarchal, imperialistic, and political repressions and terror elsewhere. 
	
	THE INTERNATIONAL COALITION OF CULTURAL WORKERS IN SOLIDARITY WITH UKRAINE antiwarcoaltion.art – гэта адкрытая анлайн-платформа, якая збірае, дзеліцца і распаўсюджвае выказванні супраць вайны, створаныя маста:чкамі з усяго свету. Абумоўленая расейскай агрэсіяй і вайной супраць Украіны, гэтая платформа дае магчымасць пратэставаць супраць вайны, дыктатуры і аўтарытарызму. Гэта магчымасць выказаць салідарнасць з тымі ва Украіне, хто пацярпеў ад расійскай ваеннай агрэсіі, і з тымі, хто супраціўляецца каланіяльным, патрыярхальным, імперыялістычным і палітычным рэпрэсіям і тэрору ў іншых месцах.

	The project is aimed at support and assistance in professional development and continuation of activities for artists and cultural workers from Belarus. The PerspAKTIV team is working on creating and expanding a sustainable network of partner organizations from Germany and Poland to provide Belarusian artists and cultural workers with safe conditions for creative realization and involvement in the European cultural context. We strive to direct residents to those organizations in which they can maximize their potential, receive professional support in the development of their projects, taking into account the specifics of each person's professional activity.

Каманда PerspAKTIV працуе над стварэннем і пашырэннем устойлівай сеткі партнёрскіх арганізацый з Германіі і Польшчы для прадастаўлення беларускім мастакам і работнікам культуры бяспечных умоў для творчай рэалізацыі і ўцягнутасці ў еўрапейскі культурны кантэкст. Мы імкнемся накіроўваць рэзідэнтаў менавіта ў тыя арганізацыі, у якіх яны максімальна могуць раскрыць свой патэнцыял, атрымаць прафесійную падтрымку ў развіцці сваіх праектаў, улічваючы спецыфіку прафесійнай дзейнасці кожнага.

	An international ICON× publication on culture, migration and displacement in the Eastern Neighbourhood is now out

	&#60;img width="1672" height="941" width_o="1672" height_o="941" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3ed808d87437c6b014507909770fb1c03617469ead2dc66597cddf02cb635814/news.png" data-mid="248534162" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3ed808d87437c6b014507909770fb1c03617469ead2dc66597cddf02cb635814/news.png" /&#62;


	

	
The international publication Displaced Culture(s): Migration, Displacement, and the Shifting Cultural Landscape(s) of the Eastern Neighbourhood Countries has been released as part of the work of ICON× – the Independent Cultural Organisations Network.

ICON× is a network of independent cultural organisations that creates space for dialogue, cooperation and knowledge exchange between researchers, artists, activists, cultural workers and representatives of civil society. The network brings together cultural initiatives from the Eastern Neighbourhood countries and is developed in cooperation with the Danish Cultural Institute.

The publication explores how migration, forced displacement and political transformation have reshaped the cultural ecosystems of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine. It brings together interdisciplinary perspectives from researchers and cultural practitioners, as well as the experience of organisations that have been directly working with these processes in recent years.

Ambasada Kultury is part of the ICON× network. For us, this publication grows out of the same field of cooperation: between independent cultural organisations, researchers, artists and civil society. It is important to us as part of a shared effort to maintain connections, support cultural rights and search for new forms of solidarity.

The Belarusian chapter was written by curator and activist Lizaveta Stecko. Her text, Belarusian DIY: How Culture Survives and is Reborn in Migration (2020–2025), looks at how independent Belarusian culture continues to exist in migration through self-organisation, mutual support, archives, research platforms, partnerships and independent initiatives.

The chapter pays particular attention to organisations and projects that have emerged or reconfigured themselves in response to the transformation of Belarusian independent cultural infrastructure. In this context, Ambasada Kultury is described as a horizontal network connecting artists, researchers and activists, and working through international partnerships, residencies, archival and research initiatives.

Among the initiatives of Ambasada Kultury, the text also mentions Open Muzej – a nomadic organisation and living archive dedicated to contemporary Belarusian art, museum memory and possible forms of institutional futures.

The publication captures how the Belarusian cultural field in migration has reorganised itself through networks, archival and research initiatives, community-based projects and international partnerships.

ICON× – гэта сетка незалежных культурных арганізацый, якая стварае прастору для дыялогу, супрацы і абмену ведамі паміж даследчы:цаміі, маста:чкамі, актывіст:камі, прадстаўнікамі і прадстаўніцамі культурнай сферы і грамадзянскай супольнасці. Сетка працуе з культурнымі ініцыятывамі з краін Усходняга суседства і развіваецца ў супрацы з Danish Cultural Institute.

Публікацыя даследуе, як міграцыя, вымушанае перамяшчэнне і палітычныя трансфармацыі змянілі культурныя экасістэмы Арменіі, Азербайджана, Беларусі, Грузіі, Малдовы і Украіны. Яна аб’ядноўвае міждысцыплінарныя перспектывы даследчыкаў і культурных практыкаў, а таксама досвед арганізацый, якія з 2020 года непасрэдна працуюць з гэтымі працэсамі. 

Ambasada Kultury ўваходзіць у сетку ICON×, і гэтая публікацыя вырастае з таго ж поля супрацы: паміж незалежнымі культурнымі арганізацыямі, даследчыкамі, мастакамі і грамадзянскай супольнасцю. Для нас яна важная як частка агульнай працы па захаванні сувязяў, падтрымцы культурных правоў і пошуку новых формаў салідарнасці.

Беларускі раздзел публікацыі падрыхтавала куратарка і актывістка Лізавета Сцяцко. Яе тэкст Belarusian DIY: How Culture Survives and is Reborn in Migration (2020–2025) прысвечаны таму, як беларуская незалежная культура пасля 2020 года працягвае існаваць у выгнанні праз самаарганізацыю, узаемную падтрымку, архівы, даследчыя платформы, партнёрствы і незалежныя ініцыятывы. 

Асобная ўвага ў беларускім раздзеле надаецца арганізацыям і праектам, якія з’явіліся або перасабраліся пасля змянення незалежнай культурнай інфраструктуры ў Беларусі. У гэтым кантэксце Ambasada Kultury апісваецца як гарызантальная сетка, што злучае мастакоў і мастачак, даследчыкаў, даследчыц, актывістаў і актывістак і працуе з міжнароднымі партнёрствамі, рэзідэнцыямі, архіўнымі і даследчымі ініцыятывамі.

Сярод ініцыятыў Ambasada Kultury у тэксце таксама адзначаны Open Muzej – намадычная арганізацыя і жывы архіў пра сучаснае беларускае мастацтва, музейную памяць і магчымыя формы інстытуцыйнай будучыні.

Публікацыя фіксуе, як беларуская культурная сфера ў выгнанні перабудавалася ў сеткі, архіўныя і даследчыя ініцыятывы, супольнасныя праекты і міжнародныя партнёрствы.

	PerspAKTIV Final Art + Alumni + Networking-Event
Belarus as a Global Case: Art and Activism in Conditions of RiskApril 11, 2025 - April 25, 2025
PerspAKTIV



&#60;img width="820" height="360" width_o="820" height_o="360" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0be67522f8e2b09cb48b47040c3f7b90971c3988b736e43b3f0a17d532355f9c/820x360-fb-cover-event.png" data-mid="229559635" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/820/i/0be67522f8e2b09cb48b47040c3f7b90971c3988b736e43b3f0a17d532355f9c/820x360-fb-cover-event.png" /&#62;


Authoritarian regimes are becoming more prevalent, and the number of artists who face the necessity of creating art under the risk of political or other forms of repression is growing around the world. In recent years, Belarus has become a symbol of the fight for freedom and human rights, and its artistic community, largely in exile after the events of 2020, serves as an excellent example for studying global trends related to artists at risk. 

The PerspAKTIV event aims to showcase Belarusian contemporary art and to highlight the current Belarusian context as an example of the complex realities faced by cultural figures under political repression and forced migration. The event will not only discuss and reveal the challenges Belarusian artists face in conditions of political and social exile, but also explore the opportunities for artistic development and international integration, showing the positive perspective of art as a tool of adaptation and self-expression in new circumstances. 

The program includes an exhibition of Belarusian contemporary art, concerts, performances, discussions and workshops.

The event is the Final Art + Alumni + Networking-Event of the residency project PerspAKTIV, implemented by RAZAM, Ambasada Kultury and Galeria Miejska Arsenał and funded by the German Federal Foreign Office, that has been launched in 2022 and has grown to a network of 33 cultural institutions in Germany and Poland supporting repressed Belarusian artists and cultural workers. 

PerspAKTIV invites all those interested in the topic of ‘artists at risk’ to come and engage in dialogue, profit from the network's expertise, hear our alumni, and - most important - delve into the varied manifestations of Belarusian contemporary art presented during the event.

Exhibition curator Volha Arkhipova: 

“The presented exhibition is part of an ongoing movement shaping Belarusian art abroad. Artists from Belarus have the opportunity to express themselves within the international creative scene. Their personal experiences, shaped by difficult social and political conditions, are reflected in different forms of art—ranging from traditional and classical to conceptual and experimental. Each artist tells their own story, touching on themes that are understandable to everyone.

These themes include understanding, protest, borders, war, prison, and home. At the same time, they show how these ideas are not fixed—they can change, take on new meanings, or even turn into their opposites. Art not only makes us think about these things but also helps us find ways to move forward, showing the audience how to navigate a world where meanings seem lost.

This is why the exhibition is called&#38;nbsp; "Vanishing point" — it’s about finding the place where different ideas and experiences meet. What do artists discover in this process? What images and meanings do they create? Questions of identity and belonging don’t have simple answers, because this is a living, ongoing process—a process of solidarity and resilience.
Арыгінальны тэкст на беларускай мове: 

Прадстаўленая экспазіцыя з'яўляецца часткай сучаснага руху, які адбываецца з беларускім мастацтвам за мяжой. Мастакі з Беларусі адтрымалі магчымасць выказвання ў межах міжнароднага творчага працэсу. Індывідуальны досьвед, які сфарміраваўся ў цяжкіх сацыяльных і грамадскіх умовах, праз розныя формы творчасці: ад класічных і традыцыйных да канцэптуальных і наваторскіх, па-свойму распавядае і прадстаўляе зразумелыя кожнаму тэмы. Гэта тэмы паразумення, пратэсту, памежжа, вайны, турмы і дома, і тым жа часам, умоўнасць гэтых тэм, прыклад таго, як устойлівыя паняцці зменьваюць сваю сутнасць і ператвараюцца ў сваю супрацлегласць. Мастацтва ня толькі прымушае нас думаць пра гэта, але і знаходзіць шляхі ратавання, паказвае гледачу, як магчыма адшукаць гэтыя арыентыры ва ўмовах страчаных сэнсаў. Адсюль і назва выставы “Кропка сходу” ‒ пошук таго месца, дзе сыходзяцца розныя накірункі і вынікі, месца даследвання. Якія намаганні прыкладваюць мастакі і якія знаходзяць вобразы ў гэтым асяродзі. Разважанні пра самаідэнтыфікацыю і змест ствараюць больш пытанняў, чым адказаў, бо гэта заўсёды жывы працэс, працэс салідарнасці і ўстойлівасці)

On February 18, 2025, at 19:00, at Ballhaus Prinzenallee in Berlin, as part of the PARANORMA program, PerspAKTIV's resident artist Gleb Kovalski will present Brothers—a performance reflecting on connection, displacement, and loss.


Created in collaboration with Kiryl Masheka, the project is based on their personal experiences of exile and imprisonment. Through movement and storytelling, "Brothers" explores the challenges of migration, the fragility of freedom, and the search for healing. The performance brings attention to the complexities of maintaining human connections across distances and the personal and collective struggles of those affected by repression and forced displacement.


The event is open to the public on a donation basis (from 5€). We invite everyone interested in contemporary performance art and socially engaged artistic expression to attend.


The project PerspAKTIV supports Belarusian artists in exile, providing them with a space for artistic development and exchange. It is implemented by RAZAM, Ambasada Kultury, and Galeria Miejska Arsenał, with financial support from the German Federal Foreign Office.

Issue 1
Entanglement of infrastructures: Civilian systems under the pressures of militarization December 2024&#60;img width="1620" height="1080" width_o="1620" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4fe9eca569df71241b9a023680a320d0cce2d79e702253c1bbc9056320eeb91d/AWC-JA-fb-1.png" data-mid="226214837" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4fe9eca569df71241b9a023680a320d0cce2d79e702253c1bbc9056320eeb91d/AWC-JA-fb-1.png" /&#62;
How do war and violence transform infrastructures designed for civilian life? What happens when homes, roads, digital networks, and ecological systems are absorbed into military strategies? Can artistic and forensic methodologies reclaim infrastructures from war’s logic? 
The first issue of AWC Journal explores how war reshapes infrastructures across physical, social, digital, and ecological domains, exposing their deep entanglement with power, control, and survival. It examines the blurred boundaries between civilian and military systems, revealing how logistics, communication networks, housing, and even environmental landscapes are weaponized in times of conflict. At the same time, it looks at creative strategies that challenge these militarized structures — acts of sabotage, counter-mapping, and speculative storytelling that expose, disrupt, and reclaim infrastructures from the logic of war. 
By making visible the hidden forces that shape our surroundings, this issue invites readers to critically rethink infrastructures as sites of contestation. Through a transdisciplinary lens, AWC Journal seeks to unravel these urgent questions, situating infrastructures as both battlegrounds and spaces of potential futures.

	From Soil to Solidarity is a discursive and performative program exploring themes of interconnectivity and colonial influence through the lens of plant cultivation and food practices, focusing on the context of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Drawing on Paul Virilio’s idea of an accident in which the system of infrastructures and colonial dependencies is illuminated and made more tangible through catastrophe, the project proposes to shift its gaze to Kharkiv — the place where fierce bombings are now taking place and its inhabitants are being annihilated.


Bridging, as a gesture of solidarity, Kharkiv and Berlin, the event forms a unique network highlighting our interdependencies and colonial subjection through daily practices related to soil and plants. Enhancing the thematic depth and geographical reach of the event, a live broadcast of the exhibition „Sense of Safety“ from Kharkiv, Ukraine will run throughout the programme. It acts as a powerful gesture of solidarity with those on the frontline of the full-scale invasion today, pulling Berlin into Kharkiv and Kharkiv into Berlin, symbolizing an unbroken chain of support and shared experiences.


The workshop „The Cartography of Home Plants as the Cultural Capital of Childhood Memories“ offers engaged research practice on the influence of colonialism on plant cultivation and how it reflects broader societal differences.


Natasha Chychasova’s talk „Millions of Roses for Nobody“ discusses the transformative impact of industrialization on natural landscapes and how war has further altered these terrains, turning potential growth into desolation.


Following this, tony lashden’s speech „Grandma’s Gurki: Home Seedlings and Food Security in Belarus“ examines the role of cucumbers, exploring how food security can act as both a colonial instrument and a decolonial response.


This event is implemented in cooperation between nGbk and antiwarcoalition.art in frames of Berlin Art Week and Bridges of Solidarity program. The Bridges of Solidarity involves more than 20 both well established and grassroot partner institutions (ZKM, Karlsruhe, nGbK, Berlin, Arsenal Gallery in Białystok, Roma Community Center in Warsaw, Bouillon Group in Tbilisi, Georgia, Cobra Museum, Amstelveen, the Netherlands etc.).


Designed to act as bridges, the series of events facilitates two-way interaction and connection between the international community and Kharkiv. These events aim to foster solidarity and mutual support.


Participants: Natasha Chychasova, tony lashden, Antonina Stebur, Taras Gembik &#38;amp; Marie Manushka



Program


17:00-19:00


The Cartography of Home Plants as the Cultural Capital of Childhood Memories


Workshop by Taras Gembik &#38;amp; Marie Manushka




This event will explore the intricate history of home plants, delving into how they shaped childhood memories across different social classes and building our contemporary identities. Discover the middle-class affinity for violets, the upper-class preference for orchids, and the popular home plants during the USSR era. We will also discuss the influence of colonialism on plant cultivation and how it reflects broader societal differences.


Marie Manushka is a cultural worker based in Warsaw, originally from Belarus. She is the founder of the Belarusian book club „Spatkajmesia,“ which fosters an international literature community. Marie showcased Belarusian culture through diverse events and lectures at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw. Currently, she is expanding her expertise in colonial and decolonial practices through the „Mycelium“ decolonial lab and developing a feminist decolonial project with Belarusian female artists.
Taras Gembik is the Head of Roma Community Centre Development cultural worker, activist. He cooperates with the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw since 2018. Together with Maria Beburia, he co-founded the BLYZKIST (“closeness”) collective, which focuses on creating a multi-level community of people with experience of migration and in a homeless crisis. Since the beginning of Russia’s full invasion of Ukraine, he has been co-creating the „Sunflower” Solidarity Community Center at MSN Warsaw.





19:30-20:00


Natasha Chychasova: Millions of Roses for Nobody


This is a story about landscape changes. It is about how industrial giants rose up in the Wild fields, taking deep roots in the soil and determining the future history of this place. It is about how, as a consequence of the war, something that was supposed to bloom becomes a ghost.


Natasha Chychasova is a curator and researcher from Donetsk, based in Kyiv. She works on post-Soviet legacy strategies for its deconstruction, feminist art practices. She is Head of the Contemporary Art Department at Mystetskyi Arsenal, one of the largest cultural institutions in Ukraine. Her curatorial projects include: This is not a Museum, this is a Plant (Dnipro, Ukraine, 2020), Non-Human trilogy (Kyiv, Ukraine, 2020); Ukraine Ablaze platform (2022), Heart of Earth (2022), Forms of Presence (2023).



20:00-20:30

tony lashden: Grandma’s Gurki: Home Seedlings and Food Security in Belarus


This input will be focused on cucumbers and specially on two instances of growing and utilising cucumbers in Belarus as a home seedling and an industrial vegetable which they are currently investigating for the upcoming novel. Using an example of Ashmyany village and its industrialised way of cultivating cucumbers, in the lecture we will discuss how food/food security became an area of colonial expansion and how home-based relations of care grow to bridge the security gap.


tony lashden (they) is a queer feminist Belarusian writer, activist, and community organiser whose creative literary work focuses on the topics of colonial dependencies, forced migration, and queer precarity. Building on their own experience of marginalisation, tony designs and facilitates spaces that center voices of historically excluded communities in Eastern Europe.



20:30-21:00

Discussion between Natasha Chychasova and tony lashden


moderated by Antonina Stebur

	Antiwarcoalition.art presents a selection of videoworks from its digital platform as part of the international project Sense of Safety and the exhibition at the YermilovCentre in Kharkiv. This screening creates a Bridge of Solidarity with the city and communities enduring daily shelling. Today, September 1, marked as an anti war day, holds special significance. It is crucial for us to bring awareness about the city of Kharkiv, a part of world heritage being transformed into a gray zone by constant bombings, as well as to remind people about ongoing wars, where violence and destruction are becoming a part of everyday life, and to highlight the human cost of war’s aftermath.

For today's Antiwar Day, “Antiwarcoalition.art” presents a special program in the following 20 minutes. You will see and hear video works as part of the international project “Sense of Safety” and an exhibition at the Yermilov Center in the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. This screening creates a “Bridge of Solidarity” with the city and the communities that are under daily attack. The international exhibition project aims to draw attention to the city of Kharkiv, which has been turned into a gray zone by constant bombardment. It aims to remind people of the ongoing wars, in which violence and destruction are part of everyday life, and to highlight the human cost of the consequences of war.

Aza Nizi Maza: Children's Freedom in a Frontline City presents a selection of children’s drawings from the Aza Nizi Maza studio in Kharkiv. This presentation creates a Bridge of Solidarity within the international project Sense of Safety and the exhibition in the YermilovCentre in Kharkiv. Founded in 2012, the studio taught more than 1000 students. During the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the studio became a bomb shelter. It initiated art projects with children sheltering in metro stations. In June 2022, as the metro reopened, the studio resumed classes, providing a safe space for children, including those with mental disorders, to create and express through art. This presentation showcases capacity to maintain hope and demonstrate resilience and creativity in the adversity of war.

Despite the adversities of war, the studio provides a space for children to develop and express themselves artistically, encouraging their ability to maintain hope, show resilience and creativity. The presentation put together by Antiwarcoalition.art forms a Bridge of Solidarity as part of the international Sense of Safety project and the exhibition at the YermilovCentre in Kharkiv

Supported by Goethe-Institute Ukraine and Nürnberger Haus

The workshop is designed as a space for creative interaction, where each participant can present their work. This can include any form of creative contribution: text, painting, drawing, song, collage, sculpture, video on a USB drive, or any other form of art.

Be prepared to participate in the full session, dedicating 3 hours to the workshop.
Be open to discussions and interaction with other participants.
Leave any doubts about the “quality” of your work at home—we are focused on energy!
