Moscow-based artist Victoria Lomasko, whose political works are banned in Russia, has been living in European exile since the beginning of the Russian attack on Ukraine. She has been a Martin Roth Initiative fellow at the GfZK Leipzig since November 2022. Lomasko draws in courtrooms and at demonstrations and makes live reports, which she comments on with texts. In Russia and former Soviet republics, she documents people’s stories, creating a multifaceted picture of societies in transition. In her painting, which she will present in her studio, Lomasko assembles these pictorial reports into monumental portraits.
The meeting point is Tuesday, August 22, 6 p.m. at Pilotenküche Leipzig, Franz-Flemming-Str. 9, 04107 Leipzig.
