The war in Ukraine is just starting and from Panorámico we thought it would be appropriate to get in touch with the only photography school in the Ukrainian capital, the Kyiv Photo School. Forced to close for obvious reasons, students and teachers found themselves in exile, taking refuge or defending the city and country with arms. The images we offer you in this exhibition are made by these teachers, who are on the front line of fire and photograph the devastation and pain.
