Ukraine House in Denmark brings architecture back to the iconic Gammel Dok
Ukraine House in Denmark opened an architecture exhibition “SPACES OF DIGNITY: HOW ARCHITECTURE HEALS THE WOUNDS OF WAR” curated by art critic and cultural manager Katya Stukalova It is a part of Copenhagen Architecture Festival.
“Spaces of Dignity” aims to amplify the Ukrainian voices, highlight their experiences and inspire new creative solutions to the many challenges the reconstruction of Ukraine faces today.
“This exhibition is about architecture, but not just about the architecture of residential buildings and public spaces, cities and villages; most importantly, it is about the architecture of society. A society that is saturated with horizontal connections between people, organizations, and initiatives. A society that is constantly building new connections - between different generations, different social levels, different experiences. Rebuilding Ukraine will not be an easy task - the level of damage and trauma brought upon our land, our heritage, our infrastructure and our demography is devastating. But the rebuilding on a symbolic level - reconstruction of the damaged social fabric and creation of a new one - has already begun”, Katya Stukalova explained.
When Ukrainians think about architecture today – they think on how to protect the architectural treasures they have, admitted Nataliya Popovych, the chairperson of Ukraine House in Denmark.
“At the same time, we treasure every single simple civilian building because this is where people have led lives that have been brutally disrupted by the Russian aggressions. And we think on how architectural solutions right now and in the future can help address the needs of over 8 million Ukrainians who have fled the war to other countries as well as another 15 millions of Ukrainians who have become internally displaced people”, Nataliia Popovych said.
Exhibition will run until August 10th.Opening hours from 12:00 till 18:00 every day except Monday.
PARTICIPANTS: balbek bureau, Urban Reform, Drozdov & Partners, Replus bureau, Álla Studio, Ponomarenko Bureau, ZIKZAK Architects, MetaLab, Repair Together, Brave to Rebuild, Skeiron, Center for Spatial Technologies, Peremebli etc.

Ukraine House in Denmark Opens “Uncurtained: Ukrainian Art in Danish Collections 1989–2023”1.9.2025 08:00:00 CEST | Nyhed
Copenhagen, August 21, 2025 – Ukraine House in Denmark proudly opened “Uncurtained: Ukrainian Art in Danish Collections 1989–2023”, its 11th major exhibition and a landmark research project tracing 35 years of cultural exchange between Denmark and Ukraine. Curated by Kateryna Stukalova, the exhibition brings together over 100 works by 28 Ukrainian artists. In her opening remarks Nataliia Popovych, chairperson of Ukraine House in Denmark, emphasized: “Uncurtained is not just an exhibition — it is a journey through thirty-five years of trust, of Ukrainian art being seen, collected, and preserved in Denmark. Long before the world spoke of the ‘Danish model’ of support for Ukraine, Danish curators, collectors, and institutions chose to trust in Ukrainian creativity — to see our culture as sovereign and distinct. Opening on the eve of Ukraine’s Independence Day, this exhibition stands as a tribute not only to our artists, but to the very idea of independence — a daily choice to defend cultu
Ukraine House i Danmark inviterer til koncert i anledning af Ukraines uafhængighedsdag11.8.2025 08:00:00 CEST | Presseinvitation
En musikalsk hyldest til Ukraines uafhængighedsdag — klange og melodier, der har formet nationen siden genoprettelsen af dens frihed og suverænitet i 1991. Programmet rummer værker af de anerkendte, nutidige ukrainske komponister Valentyn Sylvestrov, Victoria Poleva og Serhiy Zazhytko, side om side med en talentfuld ny generation: Roman Grygoriv, Serhiy Vilka, Andriy Merkhel og Yana Shlyabanska. Den ukrainske musik suppleres af værker af de danske komponister Per Nørgård og Carl Nielsen, som understreger de kulturelle bånd mellem Ukraine og Danmark. En del af koncerten er "A Musical Tribute to Ukrainian Independence" — et lyrisk potpourri af ikoniske ukrainske sange, der følger nationens kulturelle rejse fra begyndelsen af 1990’erne til i dag.
Ukraine House in Denmark præsenterer: "Uncurtained: Ukrainsk kunst i danske samlinger 1989-2023" udstilling31.7.2025 08:00:00 CEST | Presseinvitation
21. august – 23. november 2025 Kurateret af Kateryna Stukalova Ukraine House in Denmark er stolte af at kunne præsentere "Uncurtained: Ukrainsk kunst i danske samlinger 1989-2023", en skelsættende udstilling og et stort forskningsprojekt, der udforsker den rige, men ofte oversete, historie om dansk-ukrainske kulturelle relationer. Gennem ukrainske kunstværker erhvervet i private, offentlige og erhvervsmæssige danske samlinger i løbet af de sidste tre et halve årtier giver Uncurtained et unikt indblik i de kunstneriske og historiske bånd mellem de to nationer og beviser, at den nuværende stærke danske støtte til Ukraine ikke er en ny udvikling.
