Oleksandr Roitburd. Power Theory
Museum of Odesa Modern Art, Odesa
Until 22/09/2024
Museum of Odesa Modern Art opened an exhibition project of the PinchukArtCentre Research Platform “Oleksandr Roitburd. Power Theory”, dedicated to the figure of Oleksandr Roitburd, who has had a significant influence on Ukrainian art for more than three decades.
The selection of works allows viewers to understand the artist through his perception of the interaction between culture, society and power. Roitburd believed that artists naturally have the power to change the world and devoted his life to realizing this vision.
He interacted with a vast range of representatives of culture, society, and politics, including the leaders of the state. He used all these connections to promote contemporary Ukrainian art, of which he was one of the ideologists, and to facilitate its institutionalization.
