The event unfolded as a critical conversation about the concept, form, and materiality of “DAKH (ДАХ): Vernacular Hardcore”; its perception in Ukraine and abroad; its connection to the current situation in Ukraine and relevance to the architectural and artistic communities; as well as Ukraine’s participation in both the Art and Architecture Biennales — past, present, and future.
