Press Conference, or Method of Constructing Political Truth

Having settled down in Saint Petersburg in the autumn of 2014, during the climax of the information war against Ukraine, Kakhidze thought about the issue of political truth—does it exist? Exactly at that time she invented the method of constructing it, as an attempt to answer political questions from different positions, imagining various experiences, for example, an experience of a tourist or mediator, a perception of a person who is experiencing everything on his or her own (a fighter with electricity) and a gardener’s experience. 

Visitors can test the method of constructing political truth themselves: on the wall, there are indications of different positions and a list of political questions proposed by the author of the method.

For the first time, the method of constructing political truth was demonstrated at Manifesta 10 in St. Petersburg and called Where the Wild Things Are / About Ukraine within the framework of the law of the Russian Federation.

The method of constructing political truth will be demonstrated by Alevtina Kakhidze, together with television journalist Oleksiy Ananov, on December 1 at 2 pm.
