The journal Russian reporter appeared an interesting article on how to make the former Jewish town of the capital of modern art.
It is a small Ukrainian town Shargorod.
I wonder what will come of it, and whether this place is popular and attract artists, curators and tourists from different countries.

- Why do you need all this, Aleksandar?
- Tsikavo.
- What?
- Oh, sorry. I am always here to inertia on the Ukrainian turn. "Tsikavo" means "interesting", "entertaining".
- Interestingly, mean?
- Well, yes. The Americans asked: "how?" - "How?" The Germans: "Varum?" - "Why?" A Russian asks: "Why the hell are you surrendered?" - Our main philosophical question.
