FREE TOUR: Ukrainian art at Fotografiska – artist tour at the 1st floor display

On May 9, Estonia’s first-ever festival dedicated to contemporary Ukrainian art, UKU, will launch. This cultural diplomacy initiative stands in solidarity with Ukraine and its culture, grounded in the belief that creativity will always prevail. The festival spans multiple exhibition venues and galleries across Tallinn — including Fotografiska Tallinn.

On the first floor of Fotografiska, the café walls feature works by three Ukrainian photographic artists. Their images capture emotional reflections and personal experiences tied to events in Ukraine, expressing a longing for freedom and humanity. The art display will remain open through August.

On Saturday, May 10 at 4 PM, a public artist tour will take place on Fotografiska’s first floor, led by two of the art display artists — Taras Bychko and Tania Ruda. The tour will explore their creative journeys, the meaning behind their displayed works, and the broader significance of Ukrainian art in today’s world. The tour is free and will last about 30 minutes.
