An exhibition of Ukrainian photographers opens in Naples

On 24 March, the photo exhibition «BOJUJÍ I ZA NÁS»/ «They Fight for Us» opened in Naples at the Department of Political Science of the University of Naples named after Frederico II. This is not just an exhibition. It is the voice of Ukraine. The works of 15 Ukrainian photographers - members of the Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographers - capture what cannot be forgotten: the consequences of the full-scale Russian war, the pain and loss experienced by millions of Ukrainians every day. More than 20 photos. And behind each of them is someone's life. A home that no longer exists. A childhood that passes to the sound of sirens. People who have lost everything - but have not lost their dignity. The opening of the exhibition was attended by the Consul General of Ukraine in Naples Maksym Kovalenko and his wife, as well as Professor Settimio Stallone, coordinator of the Bachelor's programme in Political Science. Addressing the students, the Consul General stressed that Russia's war is a genocide against Ukrainians, and today Ukraine is fighting not only for itself, but also for freedom, which is a common value for the whole of Europe. It is very symbolic that this exhibition will be seen by students in particular - future diplomats and political scientists. After all, they must clearly understand what Russia is and what reality it brings: destruction, pain and war. The photo exhibition will be open until 3 April. Entrance is free.
