SUMMARY:Icons on Ammo Boxes Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:“Icons on Ammo Boxes” is a powerful art project created by Kyiv‑based artists Sonya Atlantova\, Oleksandr Klymenko\, and Herman Klymenko\, offering a striking artistic reflection on the Ukrainian–russian war. At its heart lies a profound transformation: turning an object of death — an ammo box — into a symbol of life\, expressed through the ancient tradition of Ukrainian icon painting.\nEach icon is painted on a real ammunition box brought from the frontlines. These fragments of war become silent witnesses\, carrying the physical and emotional weight of the conflict. By combining the harsh attributes of modern warfare with an artistic language rooted in the European Middle Ages\, the project reframes today’s war within a thousand years of Ukrainian and European history.\nThe icons transcend religious boundaries. They function not only as spiritual images but as cultural symbols accessible to all — in Ukraine\, across Europe\, and around the world.\nThis travelling exhibition has already been shown in some of the world’s most respected institutions\, including the European Parliament\, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine\, the Lithuanian Seimas\, the Scottish Parliament\, the Parliament of Finland\, St. Sophia of Kyiv\, and numerous embassies and cultural centres. It has visited 27 countries\, 142 cities\, and 277 venues\, from Berlin to Boston\, Johannesburg to Zurich\, London\, Los Angeles\, New York\, Rome\, Toronto\, and many more.\nSince 2015\, “Icons on Ammo Boxes” has supported vital charitable medical initiatives and humanitarian projects assisting Ukrainian soldiers and civilians affected by Russian aggression.\nThis free exhibition invites viewers to witness how art can confront war\, reclaim meaning\, and restore humanity — even on the most unlikely of canvases.\n\n“Icons on Ammo Boxes” exhibition in England and Wales is supported by Peli can live\, Rotary Club Guildford Chantries and Rotary Club Kyiv Capital. The event in Bath is organised by the Friends of Oleksandriya and hosted by Victoria Art Gallery.
