💄Вечір 8 березня провели разом на відкритті виставки Даші Супер «Зроблено з любовʼю».

Хто не був на вернісажі — співчуваємо. Зате ділимося відео зі спогадами на згадку. Поцілунків і обіймів було багато, а вражень ще більше.

Подивитися виставку в артцентрі можна щодня з 10:00 до 21:00 до 1 травня.
👄

Вже цієї неділі о 16:00 запрошуємо на персональну виставку Даші Супер @imshevod «Зроблено з любовʼю».

У своїй практиці Даша Супер послідовно витісняє з об’єкта «людське», доводячи кераміку до стану холодного, фабричного глянцю. Її роботи імітують пластмасу – глянцеві форми «неприродних» кольорів без видимих слідів ручної роботи.

Художниця працює з гламуром як із принципом відбору й ущільнення образів: багатовимірний досвід жіночності, бажання та дистанції перетворюється на впізнавану систему знаків, — кураторка виставки Ілона Демченко.

💄Одягайтеся в улюблені речі, а на губи — червона помада, адже саме цей дрес-код стане вашим пропуском на експозицію.

Чекаємо зустрічі весняного вихідного дня в стінах артцентру!

Кураторка проєкту – Ілона Демченко @uchaotica
Керівниця проєкту – Ляна Мицько @licvorea
Менеджерка проєкту — Віта Котик @symvolporozhnosti
У співпраці з Данилом Павлієм @pavliydanylo за підтримки компанії «2D» @2d_company.
Технічна підтримка — Іван Нестеренко @tatkoj, Олександр Кучинський @olexkuchynskyi

New episode podcast “Hi it’s me Stein”

«Ілона Демченко new program-director @jamfactory.artcenter про плани та культурний менеджмент»

Розмова Ольги Штейн @asteinart та Ілони Демченко @uchaotica — про архітектурну бієнале й культурний менеджмент, та про дистанцію між кураторством і менеджментом мистецтва.
Про освіту та кар’єрний шлях: від ІТ — до благодійної ініціативи, далі — Goethe-Institut в Україні, Hous of Europe, PinchukArtCentre (менеджмент міжнародних проєктів) — і до призначення директоркою Jam Factory Art Center.
Говорили про плани, амбіції та перестороги.

Слухайте діліться враженнями, відмічайте героїню випуску та задавайте питання.

Дуже класний випуск вам принесла сьогодні. Я знаю, що я кожен раз так кажу, але куди діватись нам, і вумним і красівим.

В гостях нова програмна директорка Jam Factory, культурна менеджерка та продюсерка @uchaotica Ilona Demchenko.

Про шо говоримо:
- про проект для архитектурного Веніціанського біеналє «Дах»,
- критика потужної незламності та реакції іноземців на внутрішньоукраїнську пропаганду,
- зброя є зброя, а культурного фронту не існує
- про роль мистецтва в дипломатії, як працює механізм міжнародної підтримки, і чому важлива присутність українського голосу в просторі інших країн, і чого вартує змагатись з російською культурною пропагандою,
- щоб нести себе закордон, треба знати себе – а в нас обмежений публічний дискурс і три тонни болю,
- про феномен Укрзалізниці, зустріч міжнародників на пероні та робота Лесі Хоменко (проєкт PinchukArtCentre),
- про культурний проект ВОЛЯ в Давосі 2025 (з розстріляних знаків з назвами міст, проєкт PinchukArtCentre),
- про місток з сенсами до людей з іншою культурою – як цьому навчитись? – уміння подивитись на ситуацію очима іншого,
- знову про Рому та Ярему і їх відеороботу “Ви не повинні були цього побачити” з дітьми, що були повернені з росії (проєкт PinchukArtCentre)

Дякую @anastasia_slep Anastasia Sleptsova за це знайомство! Жіноче коло – найкраще, що сталось зі мною за життя.

@satal Vitalii Savchuk, в цьому випуску Ілона розповідає, як Хоменко малювала величезну картину на вокзалі! Не пропусти)

Producing DAKH was not only about form, but about process as well. In this video, Ilona Demchenko [@uchaotica], producer of the Ukrainian Pavilion, reflects on how DAKH (ДАХ): Vernacular Hardcore was made in Ukraine, transported to Venice, and why the installation itself became a metaphor for collective action.

Make sure to see Lesia Khomenko’s “Imaginary distance” at the PinchukArtCenre which concludes this Friday on the 4th of January 2026.

Lesia Khomenko’s personal exhibition highlights societal transformations through the shift in visual imagery. By studying and rethinking the artistic form, Khomenko captures societal and political shifts occurring in Ukraine and the wider world. The exhibition showcases over 50 works created
throughout the twenty-five years of her artistic practice with the earliest paintings beeing created in 2005.

Khomenko has persistently constructed an artistic language that critically rethinks visual soviet heritage and turns to the traditions of Ukrainian painting deliberately resisting to be confined by it.

The artist’s monumental painting Motion (her largest work to-date and a part of the Imaginary Distance show) can currently be viewed at Kyiv’s main train station. The painting is dedicated to the strength and resistance of Ukrainians during the war.

Make sure to see Lesia Khomenko’s “Imaginary distance” at the PinchukArtCenre which concludes this Friday on the 4th of January 2026.

Lesia Khomenko’s personal exhibition highlights societal transformations through the shift in visual imagery. By studying and rethinking the artistic form, Khomenko captures societal and political shifts occurring in Ukraine and the wider world. The exhibition showcases over 50 works created
throughout the twenty-five years of her artistic practice with the earliest paintings beeing created in 2005.

Khomenko has persistently constructed an artistic language that critically rethinks visual soviet heritage and turns to the traditions of Ukrainian painting deliberately resisting to be confined by it.

Я точно не mountain person, але я в захваті і точно планую повертатись.

Раді поділитися важливими змінами в команді Jam Factory Art Center!

ДАХ ІІІ тепер у Києві, у Community Garden / Кирилівська, 41 🛖

Публічна розмова з нагоди відкриття інсталяції відбудеться наступної неділі, 28 вересня. Більше деталей незабаром!

ДАХ ІІІ — частина виставки DAKH II (Vernacular Hardcore), що була представлена на Міжнародній конференції з питань відновлення України 2025 (URC2025). У цій виставці куратори Богдана Косміна, Міхал Муравськи та Катерина Русецька досліджували, як культура й спадщина допомагають формувати та оприявнювати ідентичність.

Дах — базовий елемент архітектури. Він слугує укриттям від негоди й надійно оберігає ритуали повсякденного життя. Але в умовах повномасштабної війни, коли боротьба ведеться також у небі, із застосуванням дронів, безпілотників та ракет, дах стає чи не першою вразливою мішенню для влучання ворожих снарядів. Інсталяція свідчить, як у часи втрат і невизначеності люди тримаються за найважливіше: спільні знання, колективну памʼять і спільноту. ДАХ III стоїть на колесах, бо хоч і вкорінений у спадщину та спільноту, Дах залишається вразливим до атак і переміщень. Та попри нестабільність, на соломі залишені гарбузи — щоб дозріти й увібрати смак.

Виставка DAKH II (Vernacular Hardcore) стала продовженням першої інсталяції DAKH, що представила український павільйон на 19-й Міжнародній архітектурній виставці — La Biennale di Venezia у травні 2025 року. Проєкт у Римі у межах URC2025 відбувся за підтримки програми «Партнерство за сильну Україну» (PFRU) — багатосторонньої ініціативи, що фінансується урядами Великої Британії, Естонії, Канади, Норвегії, Фінляндії, Швейцарії, Швеції. ⠀⠀

Opening tomorrow at PinchukArtСentre is Imaginary Distance, a solo exhibition by Lesia Khomenko, curated by Björn Geldhof and assistant curator Oksana Chornobrova. The exhibition opens August 28, and is on exhibit through January 4, 2026.

The exhibition Imaginary Distance emerges as both a passage through Ukraine’s contemporary history and a meditation on Lesia Khomenko’s evolving artistic path. Featuring more than fifty works, it maps her progression from her earliest canvases of 2005 to her most recent creations. Over two decades of practice, Khomenko has continually pushed herself to invent fresh approaches to both form and subject, shaping a visual language that interrogates Soviet artistic legacies while drawing from — yet never being constrained by — the traditions of Ukrainian painting.

Throughout the exhibition, Khomenko’s hallmark style is immediately recognizable: assertive brushwork and a distinctive chromatic range that present a striking presence. Even as she probes the very boundaries of painting as a medium, her visual idiom shifts in tandem with themes rooted in her surroundings — a deep engagement with Ukraine, its people, and its unfolding history. Within her works, one encounters pointed social critique, intimate narratives, and a resonant expression of collective memory.

Dates: August 28th 2025 - January 4, 2026
Museum Hours: Wednesday–Sunday, 2 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Address: 1/3-2 Velyka Vasylkivska / Baseyna str., Kyiv, Ukraine
