Please join us for the powerful return of artist Oleg Chorny to UNBC.  He and others share artist commentary directly from Ukraine, post-invasion (2022 onward), via cinematography and responses to big questions about art, war, and humanity. 

 

We are welcoming multiple films, a remote artist visit (Oleg Chorny during the reception indicated below), and stills from the films being shared with us. This exhibition will offer insightful cinematic narratives into life in post-invasion Ukraine.

 

This exhibition raises questions such as: What is the place of an artist in a country at war? What is art capable in wartime? How can creativity exist in a society focused on waging an existential war?

 

Opening reception with light refreshments at 12pm (noon) on October 16th, 2025 in the Robert Frederick Gallery.  UNBC Prince George campus.  3333 University Way.
