The Museum Territory of Terror in Lviv Ukraine was built on the site of a former Jewish Ghetto under the Nazis and a former Soviet prison. While its original mission was to document tragic pages of the 20th century, the museum has changed its focus, since the full-scale invasion on February 24, 2022, to preserving Ukrainian art, museum collections, archives, monuments, and museum buildings which are the targets of Russian destruction.
Liana Blicharska, research fellow at the Museum Territory of Terror, discusses efforts to save Ukrainian museum collections and to re-produce ones that have been destroyed. They Liliana create audio-visual history installations which are experienced with virtual reality headsets, enabling the visitor to see lost works, buildings, and even towns while simultaneously listening to an audio guide. She also describes her personal online documentary project about the persecution of the Crimean Tartars. The Russian abduction of Potemkin's bones from his tomb in Kherson is also discussed.
