“Tinyova” Shadow Theater on tour!

Four young actors travel through war-torn Ukraine with their play “Reconstruction”. Along the way, they talk to people on the street, artists and theater makers, thereby painting what they see as an up-to-date picture of Ukraine in the fall of 2022. In their piece “Reconstruction” they encourage us and their compatriots to be our own thought architects and bridge builders with gentle and poetic images. For a new Ukraine on the ruins of lost cities. >>more soon!

Focus Ukraine

Art Crossing Borders has been in Ukraine since 2015 and is proactively looking for young artists and projects there. We have made many friends there and promote unique personalities and groups. »more

Personally, I am devastated to see our friends and their lives as pawns in world politics. We are actively in contact with everyone and arrange accommodation on a private level. Support our action »Sing with us Europe!, in which choirs from Ukraine join their European counterparts to sing the Ukrainian national anthem for the unity of Europe #UnitedEUkraine.

Thanks to all who help us! Hold on and together! Only together can we get through this infinitely dark time!

Moravski Chamber Choir

An amateur choir founded in 2017 with a strong community made up of people from all backgrounds. Choir director Olena Radko has welded the colorfully mixed group together into a well-balanced body of sound, which with its fine sound makes you forget again and again that there are no professionals on stage, but amateur singers and amateurs, some of whom can’t even read music.

Tinyova Shadow theater

A theater group founded in wartime, consisting of very young, talented and highly ambitious actors and directors who open up art, normality and spaces for thought to their compatriots in the most difficult times. They do this under the most difficult conditions imaginable in a country where there is no work and no prospects with an admirable dedication, commitment and quality.

Rehearsal room for Moravski

Rehearsal room for Moravski

Palace of Culture “Pechersk”: The Moravski Chamber Choir does not have a fixed rehearsal room until today, which means a high level of organization with about 35 members. There have even been outdoor rehearsals! A piano was often not ready for use or not even available in the first place. Under these circumstances, a choir cannot build repertoire and has difficulty developing.

A look into the soul

A look into the soul

Over 60 individuals from the fields of photography, performing arts, literature, music, and theater were reached out to and interviewed, which has provided us with valuable insights and contacts within the scene. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved. This survey, I can say this much in advance, produced unexpected results. But first of all, I would like to apologize for the delay. It is still not easy to work effectively in a war-torn country. It is a tough process and I thank you for your patience and commitment.

At the beginning of the year, Andrii left us, and with him, a crucial employee and contact person within the scene; traveling to Ukraine personally remained out of the question.
