The Cultural Life Continues: the Exhibition "Pavlo Makov. Fountain of Exhaustion 1994–2024" Took Place at Karazin University

The university remains not only a center of science, education, and enlightenment but also the heart of artistic and cultural life in the city and the country.

On March 29, at the YermilovCenter for Contemporary Art, the exhibition "Pavlo Makov. Fountain of Exhaustion 1994–2024" was opened.

The "Fountain of Exhaustion" has a long history although it is exhibited in Kharkiv for the first time. Here, for the first time, you can see how the fountain works with water inside. This version was created for the Ukrainian project at the Venice Biennale in 2022.

Each work by Pavlo Makov intertwines with complex emotions and thoughts. This exhibition not only reflects the artist's creativity but also becomes a space for reflection on life and socio-cultural aspects.

For Kharkiv and its residents, who daily endure the trials of war, this exhibition is of particular importance. It encourages internal dialogue about our own feelings and emotions, experiencing moments of joy, sadness, fatigue, and rebirth, which are an integral part of our lives.

The exhibition embodies not only art but also our shared experience, which unites and inspires us to move forward. In addition to the "Fountain," the exhibition features new works by Pavlo Makov, including those from the period of full-scale war.

The exhibition at the YermilovCenter for Contemporary Art will run until June 29. Don't miss it!
