Thank you to Cromwell Place for inviting us to be part of their ‘Art in Conflict’ programme, which supports and showcases projects exploring the impact of war on a personal, geopolitical and societal level. The exhibition is a restaging of ‘God of War’ which was presented at OHSH Projects’ New Oxford Street space in June 2022.

ARES spans four generations of emerging and established artists conceptions of war. With artists born from 1955 to 1996, their ages range over 41 years, giving us multiple perspectives on how each generation has viewed war since the aftermath of World War II. With thanks to all of the artists for their involvement and Miroslav Pomichal for writing a commentary on the exhibition.

Artist Miroslav Pomichal writes: New works will augment those from the original exhibition, and “continue the show”, much as the conflict in the Ukraine itself takes on new guises and slowly morphs, while remaining stuck in the muds of immorality.
