Letter of intent to support the voices of Ukrainian artists in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and across Europe
On the initiative of Stas Zhyrkov, Intendant Left Bank Theatre (Kyiv/Ukraine), over 100 cultural institutions, including Deutsches Theater Berlin, have so far signed the following letter of intent, which was sent to the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine on March 14:
As Europeans, theatre-makers and humans, we are deeply shocked by the Russian military aggression that has led to war against a sovereign country and the Ukrainian people. We are outraged by the violation of international law and the brutal military actions that are harming so many people and destroying innocent lives. Our sympathy goes out to all the people of Ukraine, including our many friends and colleagues, who now find themselves surrounded by violence and death. These are people who have lost their homes, their work prospects, and the security of their futures within a few short weeks.
The European art community will not remain silent about this war, or complicit in Russia’s denial of it. In a 21st century Europe that stands for freedom, democracy and an open society, any act of war affects us directly as a community with deeply held shared values. We will not stand idly by as the values we hold dear are traduced by an act of aggressive, brutal invasion.
The support of the Ukrainian cultural scene, however, must not be limited to expressions of solidarity or party-political pronouncements, but must also include the preservation of the thousand-year history of Ukrainian art and culture.
We will do everything in our power to ensure that Ukrainian theatre artists have the opportunity to practice their art in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. We will strive for the artistic integration of Ukraine into the European cultural community. In times when Ukrainian theatres are temporarily deprived of their voices – their stages and their audiences – we must offer them a platform for artistic expression on the stages and in the theatre buildings of Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
With this letter of intent, we, the signing cultural organizations, express our intention to welcome, host and stage Ukrainian theatre artists in our venues, to make Ukrainian dramatic work visible to the European community. We therefore request that the Ukraine allows artists of all genders to make whatever cross-border travel is necessary to continue their work outside the Ukraine, work which we insist can be a powerful component of cultural diplomacy towards peace and dialogue in Europe.
