Porcelain War: Amidst the chaos and destruction of the brutal Russian invasion of Ukraine, three artists defiantly find inspiration as they defend their country. In a war waged by professional soldiers against ordinary civilians, the artists choose to stay behind, armed with their art, their cameras, and, for the first time in their lives, their guns.
The discussion leaders are Peter Vosekovsky, who grew up in Ukraine, lives in Greenbelt and is a professional translator and Natalia, a Ukrainian English teacher, who will join us on Zoom, at 2 a.m. her time from Cherniv, in the war zone near the Russian border.
