The Art of War

War is the ultimate form of conflict between adversaries. The event The Art of War, written and directedby Konstantinοs Thanοs and Alkmini Kalogirou, is a representation of a war battle in the style of a board game, especially designed for children and teenagers.

Through the use of miniature soldiers, combat weapons, and strategic techniques for achieving victory from Sun Tzu’s book of the same title, children will be made aware of the impacts of war and the emotions of those involved – victims, aggressors, and bystanders. In a time when games play such an important role in children’s everyday lives, this analogy-based representation uses game-playing as a tool for a multifaceted and experiential approach to war and conflict.
