The images of Ukrainian photographers who captured life during the massive light outages in the winter of 2022-2023 showed diplomats the resilience and courage of our people in extremely difficult conditions.
Through the documentation of the war, we see that even in extremely difficult conditions Ukrainians find a way to learn, create, work. Keep fighting.
A welcoming word at the opening of the exhibition said Serhiy Korovaynyi, photojournalist and portrait photographer, member of the Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographers:
But winter seemed like a disaster, but now it's clear — well, it will get worse. The new blackouts are already with us. Among the photos of this post are June Kramatorska, Sloviansk, Kharkov, taken forThe Wall Street Journal.
Such measures contribute to the strengthening of cultural ties between countries. They can be the basis for future cooperation in the field of culture, art and other areas.
