Event series ’The Other Russia’ continues

The Tsvetaeva Center at the University of Freiburg and the Research Training Group "Cultural Transfer and Cultural Identity" invite regime-critical intellectuals and artists. Freiburg, Oct 10, 2022 Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine continues, and the partial mobilization ordered by Russian President Vladimir Putin even raises fears of a further escalation. At the same time, Russian intellectuals and artists are increasingly raising their voices against Putin's regime and this war. Many of them now live outside Russia. The Tsvetaeva Center for Russian Culture at the University of Freiburg launched the event series "The Other Russia" in the spring of 2022 to make some of these voices heard. The first installment of the series raised nearly 6,000 euros in donations for the Medical Center - University of Freiburg's Ukraine Aid. The series attracted a great deal of attention not only among the Freiburg public, but also among Russian intellectuals and artists.
