DISPATCHES
2023–2024,
A postcard project by M HKA and VCRC for the Kyiv Biennial 2023-2024
Dispatches is a postcard project organized by M HKA (Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp) and the Visual Culture Research Center for the Kyiv Biennial 2023-2024. For the ”distributed” format of this edition of the biennial, taking place at venues across Ukraine and the EU, we invited twelve artists to each produce a postcard design that can be found at all the venues of the biennial and beyond. It is a modest call to send one’s own dispatches from the front line.
