This evening brings together a round table and poetry readings with participants working across literature\, cinema\, curatorial practice\, and cultural production\, connecting voices from Uk raine and across Europe.
At the centre of the conversatio n is the role of art in times of war: how it responds to violence\, carrie s memory\, and continues under pressure\, as well as its limits — what i t can express or make visible when ordinary language is no longer sufficie nt.
Participants:
Iryna Tsilyk \;– Award-winning filmmaker and writer (
Kyiv). Her work explores everyday life shaped by war through cinema and es
says.
Irena Karpa \;– Writer and musician. A prominent voice in contemporary culture\, she combines sharp social observ ation with international cultural diplomacy.
Marion Guth \;– Luxembourg-based producer (a_BAHN). She develops political
ly engaged projects at the intersection of cinema\, XR\, and technology.. Marta Czyż
\;– Art historian and curator (Venice Biennale). Her work
focuses on how contemporary art and archives shape our understanding of wa
r and memory. Radek Lipka \;– Film curator an
d programmer working at the intersection of cinema and public discourse. Philippe Schockweiler \;– Poet\, whose reading
s will provide a direct\, concentrated conclusion to the themes discussed.
Together\, the discussion and readings situate art withi
n the conditions of war\, reflecting the central idea of the festival: cul
ture continues under pressure and remains part of what is being defended t
oday.
