The Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures and CREEES (Center for Russian, East European and Eurasian Studies) at °®åú´«Ã½ invite you to a lecturer-performance by Margarita Kuleva (Tufts University).

If Museum's Walls Could Talk

The lecture-performance is dedicated to revealing "behind the scenes" political struggle for creativity and cultural expression in the context of wartime Russia. It draws upon a variety of less visible protest and dissent actions caused by the new wave of censorship and extreme police brutality. The performance is based on a collection of interviews I conducted with Russian cultural workers since the beginning of the war and self-ethnography.
