One of the most powerful voices in Ukrainian contemporary art, Kadyrova is internationally recognized for her ability to explore the limits of material and form. She frequently uses salvaged materials and found objects – such as concrete, ceramics, glass and metal – to create works that bear powerful witness to life in a war zone. As the artist explains: “These works are not a representation of violence, but a tangible trace of violence itself, extracted from its context and placed within the framework of art. The use of these materials is not an aesthetic act, but a direct testimony to the brutality of conflict, an extraction of pure truth from the very flesh of war.”

In this new exhibition, the artist presents a series of works that delve into the reality of the conflict in Ukraine, which has transformed the daily lives of its inhabitants into a landscape of destruction. The Russian military offensive and its consequences occupy a central place in the thinking of Kadyrova, who, since 2022, has decided to considerably limit her international projects in order to remain at the heart of events and on the ground. Her works resonate with the collective experience of Ukrainians, crossing testimonies of a war that continues to impact Ukraine and Europe, while celebrating the strength of human resistance and the persistence of life.

Solo show by Zhanna Kadyrova

The gallery

Galleria Continua is a contemporary art gallery founded in 1990 in San Gimignano by three friends: Mario Cristiani, Lorenzo Fiaschi and Maurizio Rigillo.

Galleria Continua represents a desire for continuity between times and a desire to write a current history. Thanks to its investment in forgotten and unconventional sites, the gallery has always chosen atypical locations, developing a strong identity and an original positioning in over thirty years of activity. In 2021, Galleria Continua opened a new space in the heart of the French capital. This space is dedicated to experimentation and the encounter between art, society and culture, in a constantly evolving setting.
