Gleb Katchuk and Olga Kashimbekova’s video work is a valuable documentary evidence of the times of the Orange Revolution of 2004. The artists walked through the rows of tents and barricades between the Bessarabska Sguare and Maidan Nezalezhnosti in the midst of the revolutionary events. It resulted in the single shot work typcal of Katchuk and Kashimbekova’s art – when a seemingly absolutely documentary story is being gradually colored with surrealistic notes.
