The war continues until now\, ruining the lives of millions of people and uprooting the principles of civilized life as we know it. The goal of the exhibition is to raise awareness of the war still raging in t he heart of Europe. Our exhibit showcases some of the brilliant artworks o f contemporary Ukrainian illustrators living and working in Ukraine\, some times\, with no power\, water\, cell signal\, or Internet connection. Many of them have long collaborated with global media\, in particular The New Yorker\, The Atlantic\, Zeit\, Adweek\, and other outlets. The 25 posters on display have been created by 9 emerging and well-established illustrato rs since the start of the full-scale invasion. A poster\, as a form of fin e art blending imagery and text\, is a convenient and iconic statement\, a means of rapid\, shareable response to the urgent events and personal emo tions they trigger. In the context of the massive information war\, illust rators have become the voices of the art community\, and their activism ad ds tangible strength to the ‘cultural troops’ who fight propaganda eve ry day\, broadcasting facts through artistic images and defending the trut h as eyewitnesses.
