Sergey Bratkov / Сергій Братков

2022

Video
Materials:

Bratkov films his brother, a 75 year old architect living in the east Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, while he is measuring rooms and counting windows in a dilapidated children’s hospital, as if to reflect on its possible renovation. The video concludes with the harsh fact that at the moment the video was finalised his brother was counting bombs.

Sergey Bratkov, statement:

“I hate the war and those who unleashed it. 
I wrote that in another film work about my brother living in Kharkiv, in the same series as the work presented here. 
The film with that statement was made at the very beginning of the war and shown on Austrian television.”

About M HKA / Mission Statement

The M HKA is a museum for contemporary art, film and visual culture in its widest sense. It is an open place of encounter for art, artists and the public. The M HKA aspires to play a leading role in Flanders and to extend its international profile by building upon Antwerp's avant-garde tradition. The M HKA bridges the relationship between artistic questions and wider societal issues, between the international and the regional, artists and public, tradition and innovation, reflection and presentation. Central here is the museum's collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.
