ArtPole

ArtPole Agency is an independent cultural institution that appeared officially in 2007 in Kyiv. Its main purpose is to create and to produce non-commercial innovative art projects — Ukrainian and international ones. ArtPole Agency is a founder of the first Ukrainian open-air festival Sheshory. Later it transformed into the festival Sounds/ Actions in Space. It combined authentic and world-music, landart, open-air theatre, and performance. During 12 years, the festival was held in different locations — Western, Eastern, Central, and South Ukraine.
