Introducing Boris Magrini with more guests to come. The conversation is focused on the cultural diplomacy and institutional responsibility, proposing strategies and support not only as a reactionary response, but also through initiatives- intertwining the pace of global turns and shifts with the current and future goals of institutions and their politics. Between the conversations are screenings of winning artworks by fantastic little splash (UA), Andriy Rachinskiy (UA) and Daniil Revkovskyi (UA).
