Here is the artist and his bio:

“Originally from Jõhvi, Estonia, the artist now lives and works in Ukraine. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014 he has been involved in creating political posters, highlighting important events of the war. In 2022 alone, he has created over 500 posters on the theme of war and invasion. His works are widely recognized worldwide, and his poster exhibitions have been showcased in the US, Estonia, Lithuania, Japan, and Germany. In 2022, the museum of Ukrainian Poster recognized him as the best poster artist in the country. In 2023, he was included in the list of 100 most influential people in Ukraine during the war, according to the Ukrainian Pravda publication. Nikita has received awards for his volunteer activities.”

These were on display at my school… no shame.

This made me realize just how alone I am here.

    Maybe you could sneakily print out and put next to it some informative texts about the OUN and show their flag specifically?

      I’ve wanted to do something like that for the Nazi monuments that are around, like print a poster and display it next to the statue to educate people and who and what it’s actually about (rather than doing graffiti).

      For this display at school I don’t think I’d be able to get away with it as where it is located has a lot of foot traffic. It’s specifically placed where the entrances intersect so anyone entering will see it in all its glory. If I tried to post my own info about the OUN I would definitely get super caught…

          It’s not a notice board, this display is thick posters on easels displayed in the middle of the library first floor where all the entrances intersect. We do have notice boards around campus though that I could post flyers on them relatively unharmed/unnoticed, just not where these posters were displayed.
