Through the members and exhibition projects the Künstlerhaus Artists' Association shares a lot of ties with Ukraine. These days we are thinking of the curators and artists of the exhibition I AM A DROP IN THE OCEAN that was shown at Künstlerhaus in 2014. It was dedicated to the artistic and visual expressions of the protests that took place at Maidan from November 2013 until February 2014.
Since the beginning of the protests, artists had been at the center of events. They designed protest posters, organized (mass-)performances and created their works directly on the Maidan.
