Cultural exchange despite the war – two trips to Galicia in 2024

The first encounters and exhibitions with artists and photographers from Ivano-Frankivsk took place 11 years ago in Dresden under the umbrella of the Kultur Aktiv association. Since then, we have been able to organize numerous projects together. In order to keep this relationship alive even in times of war in Ukraine, the nEUROPA gallery team organized three exhibitions in Dresden, Ivano-Frankivsk and Verkhovyna together with the Kolumb photo club in 2024. In his lecture, Jan Oelker will talk about these exhibitions and report on the two trips to Galicia, where the front is far away but the war is omnipresent. This makes support, relationships, exchanges and personal encounters all the more important in order to preserve a bit of normality.

Jan Oelker, born in Dresden in 1960, worked as an engineer until he became a freelance photojournalist in 1991. His main subject is the relationship between man and the environment. Since the mid-1980s, he has travelled to the countries of the former Soviet Union more than 25 times. He is particularly interested in how the transformation of these societies affects people’s everyday lives.
