All the photos you see here show how really "great russian culture" works", explained Alex Zakletsky, Ukrainian photographer who introduced his exhibition Geometry of War at Vytautas Magnus University (VMU) on 9th of September. The exhibition's opening was a part of the program of the 20th session of the European Cultural Parliament (ECP) and Kaunas - the European Capital of Culture.
