Triennale Milano opens with first-ever Ukrainian pavilion

The Triennale Milano has opened today with the Planeta Ukrain Ukrainian pavilion presented for the first time.

"The Triennale Milano has kicked off today, where the Planeta Ukrain Ukrainian pavilion was presented for the first time curated by writer Gianluigi Ricuperati, actress Lidiya Liberman, and pianist Anastasia Stovbyr. Bright representatives of modern Ukrainian culture in fine arts, architecture, theater, music, cinema, literature, photography, pedagogy and philosophy will take part in the events of the Ukrainian pavilion this year. The program will last until December," Minister of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine Oleksandr Tkachenko posted on Facebook.

According to him, Ukraine should occupy an important place in events of such a scale because we have something to offer the world.

Tkachenko thanked Triennale President Stefano Boeri and Italy’s Minister of Culture Dario Franceschini for their support and implementation of the Pavilion from scratch in three months.
