Vabamu ja Parker Watt kutsuvad: "Vastupidav eneseväljendus: Ukraina kunstnikud Eestis" esilinastus

In English below

Fulbrighti teadlane Parker Watt ja Vabamu kutsuvad dokumentaalsarja esilinastusele.

Stanfordi ülikooli vilistlane ja Fulbrighti teadlane Parker Watt on viimase aasta jooksul loonud sarja lühidokumentaalfilme, millest igaüks jutustab ühe Eestis elava ja töötava Ukraina kunstniku või kunstirühmituse loo. Iga peategelane räägib, kuidas kunst on olnud tema jaoks vahend tervenemiseks, kultuuri jätkamiseks või sideme loomiseks Eesti ja eestlastega.

Esilinastus toimub 24. septembril kell 16.00 Vabamus. Linastusele järgneb võimalus dokumentaalfilmi tegija ja intervjueeritavatega vestelda. Üritus on inglise ja ukraina keeles. Üritus on tasuta, kuid eelnev registreerumine on vajalik siin – https://forms.gle/jM7hF3nKuSYbeLXd9

Projekti valmimist on toetanud Fulbrighti üliõpilaste teadusstipendium ning AABS toetus Balti uuringute projektidele.

Parker osales 2023. aasta suvel Stanfordi praktikaprogrammis Tartu Ülikooli Skytte instituudis, mida koordineeris Vabamu.

Vabamu and Fulbright researcher Parker Watt invite you to the premiere screening of a documentary series

This series of short documentary videos has been created by a Stanford university alumnus and Fulbright researcher Parker Watt over the last year, and each video tells the story of a single Ukrainian artist or artistic group living and working in Estonia. These individuals each speak of their experience using art as a mode of healing, of cultural continuation, or of connecting with Estonia and Estonians.

The screening will take place on the 24th of September at 4 pm and will be followed by a period of light refreshments and food. The event is accessible for both English and Ukrainian speakers, it is free, but registration is required here – https://forms.gle/AFsWvZ7ghXinHk14A

This project has been made possible by the Fulbright Student Research Grant as well as the Association for the Advancement of Baltic Studies’ Baumanis Grant for Creative Projects in Baltic Studies. Parker participated in the Stanford Global Studies internship at Skytte Institute in summer 2023. The internship program is coordinated by Vabamu and is part of Stanford-Baltics Exchange Program.
