Jerzy has, in 2005, completed his tenure at the Center for Contemporary Art (CCA) in Kyiv, Ukraine (formally the George Soros Centre for Contemporary Arts as part of the Soros Foundation). His tenure was one of the longest and most successful in the history of the center. Under his leadership, the CCA promoted education and exposure of contemporary art (both Ukrainian and International). But more importantly Jerzy promoted young Ukrainian artists and student involvement in the CCA. During the “Orange Revolution” the CCA became a political centre for young artists-activists (now called REP) who used the centre’s premises for the creation of “revolutionary art”. During his tenure at the CCA Jerzy was also a public and at times a political force, often treated by friends, colleagues and competitors as a moral authority on the development and state of arts and culture in post-communist Ukraine.
