Ukraine At War: Street Art, Posters + Poetry

Ukraine At War: Street Art, Posters + Poetry A unique book that showcases how Ukrainian society is expressing itself through art.War came to Ukraine in February 2022; it was uninvited—although not entirely unexpected given Russia’s steady, massive troop build-up on Ukraine’s eastern border over the winter. When war exploded, millions of people around the world watched it compulsively on TV.Daoud Sarhandi-Williams—author of the internationally–acclaimed Bosnian War Posters—traveled to Ukraine in the summer of 2022 to photograph street art. He gathered a lot more images besides—as well as a trove of extraordinary war poetry by Ukrainian citizens, shared internationally here for the first time. The author brings all these elements together in an original, multi-layered visual book that is moving, profound, and painfully beautiful.With over 400 photos and artworks by the author and other contributors, the 320 pages of this book are a tribute to Ukraine’s courage, heroism and struggle—and to her creativity, too.Ukraine at War is a unique artistic testament to Ukrainian resilience and to world-changing events that are far from over.
