The Future for Ukraine: Illustration and Media in Times of Crisis – Discussion

HALL 13, Bubenské nábř. 306, 170 00 Prague 7-Holešovice, Czech Republic

What roles do images in the media play during a crisis? How important is the visual presentation of crisis events? And how can an illustrator contribute to or help prevent the escalation of cultural conflicts, the spread of misinformation, and distortion? A moderated discussion with visual culture theorist Andrea Průchová Hrůzová, Alžběta Medková and Ukrainian journalist and illustrator Zhenyou Oliinyk will be led by curator Barbora Müllerová.

The program will be conducted in English.

The Future for Ukraine project is implemented by LUSTR festival of illustration and Pictoric with support of IZOLYATSIA foundation, Trans Europe Halles and Malý Berlín and co-financed by the ZMINA: Rebuilding program, created with the support of the European Union under a dedicated call for proposals to support Ukrainian displaced people and the Ukrainian Cultural and Creative Sectors.
