n-ost and Stiftung Frauenkirche open photo-exhibition in Dresden

With the ongoing war in Ukraine, it remains essential to keep up the public awareness and debate about Russia's persisting aggression and the destruction that comes with it. Stiftung Frauenkirche Dresden made it's church available as a public space, in which these conversations can continue to take place.  

From 12th September until 20th November the exhibition “Stronger than Bombs” is on display in Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) and Neumarkt square in Dresden. 20 images tell the stories of threat, destruction and protection of the Ukrainian national cultural heritage in times of Russian aggression and therefore draws parallels with the church's own history as it suffered near-destruction from bombings in World War II. The images depict Ukrainian artists, citizens and volunteers stabilizing, re-building and protecting art and culture in Ukraine.
