26.10.2022 | Solidarity and support for refugee artists and cultural workers from the war zones of Ukraine
The bbk berlin and its kulturwerk offer active help to refugee artists and cultural workers from the war zones of Ukraine. We provide our networks and infrastructure, especially the workshops. Our offices and staff will provide orientation and support networking with the local scene as far as possible. This includes that the bbk berlin channels and coordinates individual requests for help and offers through its partnership connections.
Here we publish information, web links and actions on the current situation:

Frankivsk Gallery „Asortymentna kimnata“
From the first day of the war, the team of the Frankivsk Gallery "Asortymentna kimnata" launched a program to evacuate and preserve works of art - primarily from the grassroots self-organized spaces and workshops of artists who are forced to leave their cities.
https://www.facebook.com/asortymentna.kimnata
“Working Room”, Lesia Khomenko
The idea of the initiative is to create a quick format of residency / working laboratory for displaced artists on the basis of the Asortymentna kimnata.
To donate for support of the “working room”, please buy items in this online shop: https://rcrkhomenko.com/shop
(Write, that you don’t expect the delivery, but the money will go directly to Lesia and her sister, who will support the artist residency.)
