De Balie in cooperation with The Moscow Times & All Rights Reversed presents The Kremlin’s Art of Oppressing Art, part of Artists Against the Kremlin. Anti-war and protest art in Russia faces severe persecution. Dissident artists are imprisoned or driven out of the country. Despite brutal repression, artists find the courage to raise their voices, even at great personal risk. Join a roundtable discussion with artists, curators, and journalists to explore how Russia’s prison system influences dissident culture, both within and outside the country. The event will feature a special interview with Nadezhda Skochilenko, mother of the imprisoned artist Sasha Skochilenko. Speakers: - Philippenzo, dissident artist - Nadezhda Skochilenko, mother of the imprisoned artist and activist Sasha Skochilenko - Olga Romanova, journalist, director of Russia behind bars - Nadya Raplya, dissident visual artist - Paul Alexander, journalist, specialized in Russia, Ukraine and Eastern Europe
