David Chichkan's Lost Opportunity exhibition, organized by Visual Culture Research Center in Kyiv in February 2017, was devoted to the war and the situation after the Maidan 2013-2014 in Ukraine. The project acutely raised the question that was in the air for more than three years: what was, has become and could have become the protest on the Maidan. From the perspective of the author, the Maidan for Ukrainian society is a lost opportunity to carry out a social revolution: not to defend dignity but to achieve decent living conditions at last. In the series of graphic works the artist revealed the causes and talked about the consequences of this loss, among which "decommunization" is listed as a phenomenon that crystallizes the signs of counterrevolution in the context of political ignorance. After the project was opened, appeals for the destruction of the exhibition and threats to the artist and the organizers emerged at the pages of right-wing bloggers and groups in social networks. On Tuesday, the 7th of February, at about 17:40, approximately 15 people burst into the premises of Visual Culture Research Center, injured the bodyguard, destroyed the exposition and stole some of the works presented there. The exhibition featured ten graphic paintings by David Chichkan. Four of them were abducted, and three were completely destroyed. Only two art works survived, and one was slightly damaged. Among the inscriptions on the walls made by the attackers was a trident, stylized under the Celtic cross, which is one of the evidences that the onslaught was committed by neo-Nazis. The incident was widely publicized in Ukraine and abroad, and proved that the critical point of view on the Maidan’s events is still perceived very painfully in Ukrainian society, traumatized by the events of recent years.
