Krátky popis
In recent years Russian cities have visibly changed. The
architectural heritage of the Soviet period has not been fully
acknowledged. As a result many unique modernist buildings have been
destroyed or changed beyond recognition.Russian photographer
Arseniy Kotov intends to document these buildings and their
surroundings before they are lost forever. He likes to take
pictures in winter, during the 'blue hour', which occurs
immediately after sunset or just before sunrise. At this time, the
warm yellow colours inside apartment block windows contrast with
the twilight gloom outside.To Kotov, this atmosphere reflects the
Soviet period of his imagination. His impression of this time is
unashamedly idealistic: he envisages a great civilization, built on
a fair society, which hopes to explore nature and conquer space.
From the Baikonur Cosmodrome in the desert steppes of Kazakhstan to
the grim monolithic high-rise dormitory blocks of inner city
Volgograd, Kotov captures the essence of the post-Soviet world.'The
USSR no longer exists and in these photographs we can see what
remains - the most outstanding buildings and constructions, where
Soviet people lived and how Soviet cities once looked: no
decoration, no bright colours and no luxury, only bare concrete and
powerful forms.'
