We need to unite the efforts and potential of those who work in the modern art of Ukraine. To have an organization that would formulate and represent the interests of all actors.

About ACAWU

The Association of Artists of Contemporary Art of Ukraine unites artists of various genres and directions who are engaged in contemporary art in Ukraine, creating works of art, projects and events.

The division of artists into five different genres is a completely arbitrary division, but this is how art works and is perceived by the world. Festivals, cinema halls, theaters, exhibitions, concert halls, publishing houses, art biennials, book fairs - operate within these directions.

Activities of the Association

Our association was established as a charitable organization, the Association of Contemporary Art Workers of Ukraine Charitable Foundation (ACAWU).

After the declaration of Ukraine's independence in 1991, the national culture faced the question of integrating into the international process of studying human beings, their states, physiology, psyche, social and political relations, traditions and stereotypes, phobias and complexes in the language of contemporary art.
