A newspaper wi th a photograph from the front lies on the street\, someone has sent you a new meme with Putin\, you are watching a recording from the trenches.\nCu lture reacts to catastrophe in different ways: sometimes it can distort it \, sometimes it helps us understand it. The 80th anniversary of the end of World War II is a moment to reflect on what images of war we see every da y and whether they talk about the past - and the present - in a responsibl e\, accurate and important way.\n\nWe invite you to join the conversation with Keith Lowe\, historian and author of 'Prisoners of History'\, which e xplores the monuments that shape our memory of World War II\, and Tomasz S zerszeń\, essayist and author of 'Being a Guest in a Catastrophe'\, a refl ection on the visual language of war in Ukraine.\n\nThe meeting will take place at Dom w Alejach in Warsaw\, 26 June 2025\, at 6:00 p.m.\n\nThe disc ussion will be held in English with simultaneous Polish translation and br oadcast online on the ENRS Facebook account.
