WAR IN UKRAINE<br />
A summer<br />
when Ukraine<br />
remembered and<br />
commemorated,<br />
but the war<br />
continued<br />
Myroslav Shkandrij<br />
This summer, as a shaky ceasefire appeared to hold,<br />
Ukrainians were able to look back over the events of the<br />
last two years. Reminders are everywhere. A sculpture<br />
in the Mystetsky (Art) Arsenal Gallery in Kyiv shows a<br />
map of the country with Crimea broken off. Made from a<br />
shattered wall, it marks the moment in March 2014 when<br />
Putin sent troops into Crimea and annexed the peninsula.<br />
he dramatic events of the Maidan demonstrations between<br />
November 2013 and February 2014 were on display<br />
all summer in the centre of Kyiv, where a photo<br />
T<br />
exhibition provided eerie reminders of the drama in<br />
that played out in the same space a little more than a year ago.<br />
