Exhibited Work: Print Series 'To Say It'
Duration: 24 May–31 July 2012
Event type: Group Show
Organizer: Ministry of Culture of Ukraine, Kyiv City State Administration, State Administration of Affairs, NKHMK ‘Mystetskyi Arsenal’
Venue: NKHMK ‘Mystetskyi Arsenal’ , Kyiv, Ukraine
The first Kyiv Biennale, ARSENALE 2012, took place in the historic Mystetskyi Arsenal in Kyiv, Ukraine. Curated by David Elliott under the commissionership of Nataliia Zabolotna, the exhibition was titled “The Best of Times, The Worst of Times. Rebirth and Apocalypse in Contemporary Art,” drawing inspiration from Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities (1859).
Bringing together over a hundred international and Ukrainian artists, the biennale explored the tensions between progress and collapse, optimism and despair, that defined the early 21st century. Among the participating artists was Egor Kraft, who presented works from his To Say It series — a project examining the role of communication, censorship, and mediated truth in the age of global information networks. His contribution resonated with the exhibition’s overarching reflection on rebirth and apocalypse, situating digital language and socio-political discourse within broader existential and cultural transformations.
