Artists turn weapons into art

The exhibition, 'AKA Peace,' in collaboration with non-profit organization Peace One Day, showcases artists reinterpretation of AK-47 assault rifles, reacting against the horror of violence globally and recasting a weapon of devastation as a conduit to peace. Currently on display at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London, the art installations are to be auctioned at Phillips de Pury & Company after the exhibition on Oct. 4 to raise funds for Peace One Day.
