PinchukArtCentre is International Contemporary Art Gallery, which was opened in September 2006. It is located, on Velyka Vasylkivska Street / Baseyna street 1/3-2 in Kyiv.
The Art Center is located in the ancient Bessarabian Quarter of Kyiv, which was restored in the early 2000s. The interior and design project was designed by French architect Philip Chiambarette. It includes six floors of the gallery, four of which are exhibition halls and the remaining floors contain video lounges, a curator's room and a food facility on the 6th floor. In 2008-2009, an art platform for small events and exhibitions of young artists worked here.
PinchukArtCentre is also a participant in many international exhibitions and shows. It organized the Ukrainian Pavilion at the 52 and 53 Venice Biennale with the projects “Poem on the Inner Sea“ and “Steppes of Dreamers“. In the winter 2011, the Center launched the project “Collection Platform: Circulation“. It is a permanent exhibition of both Ukrainian and international contemporary artists works, which is updated twice a year.
And in the autumn 2011, the educational project Curatorial Platform was created on the basis of the platform, which includes two-year theoretical and practical training for modern specialists, whose work is connected to art. The aim of the project is to form a new generation of young curators and artspecialists.
In addition to mentioned above, the PinchukArtCentre also supports young artists by creating various kinds of awards, such as the PinchukArtCentre Prize, which is aimed to support young artists, as well as the Future Generation Art Prize, which aims to support and help the new generation of artists.
