At War with War visualizes humanity’s 5,000-year-long state of conflict on a continuous timeline. Seventy pages of stark black-and-white pen-and-ink drawings and woodcuts illustrate history’s most notorious battles—from 3300 BCE to the present day. Interspersed are contemplations on war from thinkers including excerpts from The Art of War by Sun Tzu, The Complaint of Peace by Desiderius Erasmus, and The State by Randolph Bourne. Searing and sardonic, balancing anger and despair with wit and humanity, these illustrations recall the work of social satirists such as Honoré Daumier, Frans Masereel, Felix Vallotton, and Otto Dix. Seymour Chwast, a design legend and co-founder of Push Pin Studios, turns his pen to a subject that has long preoccupied him—the fight against war, humankind’s enduring scourge.
