Exhibition "Nebenan" opened in German Bundestag

On 19th of October Bundestag President Bärbel Bas opened the exhibition Nebenan / Close by. The Kiev War Diary” by Yevgenia Belorusets. From 24th of February till 5th of April 2022, Yevgenia published daily reports from Kyiv, describing everyday life whose normality was lost overnight in a brutal war of aggression. Her war diary is the basis of the mind map developed for the German Bundestag - a memory map that uses photos and text sequences to reconstruct the "beginning of the war" day by day. The exhibition is curated by Kristina Volke. Video reportage from the opening can be found under this link.
