Publisher's Synopsis
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 found a lot more besides - as well as a trove of war poetry by Ukrainian citizen poets. Here he brings these elements together in a way that is moving, profound, and painfully beautiful. Ukraine at War is a unique artistic testament to Ukrainian resilience and to world-changing events that are far from over.
