Klappentext

The volume provides insights into the complexity of the historical development of
Ukraine's art and cultural landscape in the context of the Russian invasion in 2022.
On the one hand, the new visibility of war and the immediacy of artistic response to
the tragedy have been addressed. On the other hand, the volume reflects on art
historical projections of 19th- and 20th-century imperial, hegemonic narratives in
the context of negotiating the cultural heritage and facing the emergence of
national or regional museums and collections in Ukraine. Concerning such
historiographical instrumentalizations, the essays also address the problem of the
acutely endangered and destroyed cultural heritage of the Soviet era.
