All photographs showcased at the exposition reveal the most dramatic moments of Maidan at its tragic culmination period in February 2014. Visitors can explore Maidan from quite different perspective, how it was seen by a foreigner, completely unbiased person who happened to observe the most tragic and violence events in Ukrainian history of recent times.

The Exhibition showcases 40 photographs picturing Maidan events. Three of these works won the audience award at London Photo Festival in 2016.
