Visiting any of the dozen or so Metro networks built across the Soviet Union between the 1930s and 1980s, it is easy to see why. Rather than the straightforward systems of London, Paris or New York, these networks were used as a propaganda artwork, a fusion of sculpture, architecture and art that combined Byzantine, medieval, baroque and constructivist ideas and infused them with the notion that communism would mean a 'communal luxury' for all. Today these astonishing spaces remain the closest realization of a Soviet utopia. Following his bestselling quest for 'Soviet Bus Stops', Canadian photographer Christopher Herwig has completed a subterranean expedition photographing the stations of each Metro network of the former USSR. From extreme marble and chandelier opulence to brutal futuristic minimalist glory, 'Soviet Metro Stations' documents this wealth of diverse architecture. Along the way Herwig captures the elements that make up this singular Soviet experience: neon, concrete, escalators, signage, mosaics and relief sculptures all combine to build a vivid map of the Soviet Metro. 'Soviet Metro Stations' includes an essay by the leading architectural and political writer Owen Hatherley, author of the acclaimed books Landscapes of Communism (2015), Trans-Europe Express (2018) and The Adventures of Owen Hatherley in the Post-Soviet Space. 600 10 $a Herwig, Christopher. 650 0 $a Architectural photography. 650 0 $a Photography, Artistic. 650 0 $a Subway stations $z Soviet Union $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Subway stations $z Russia (Federation) $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Subway stations $z Former Soviet republics $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Subways $z Russia (Federation) $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Subways $z Former Soviet republics $v Pictorial works. 651 0 $a Former Soviet republics $x Buildings, structures, etc. $v Pictorial works. 650 7 $a Buildings. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00840962 650 7 $a Subway stations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01136966 650 7 $a Architectural photography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00813301 650 7 $a Photography, Artistic. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061964 650 7 $a Subways. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01136975 651 7 $a Soviet Union. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210281 651 7 $a Russia (Federation) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01262050 651 7 $a Soviet Union $z Former Soviet republics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01262458 650 7 $a Fotografie $2 gnd 650 7 $a Untergrundbahnstation $2 gnd 651 7 $a Sowjetunion $2 gnd 650 7 $a 21.40 photographic art: general. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077595181 $2 bcl 655 7 $a Photobooks. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919950 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423873 655 7 $a Photobooks. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Pictorial works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423874 700 1 $a Hatherley, Owen, $e writer of added text. 700 1 $a Murray, Damon, $e editor. 700 1 $a Sorrell, Stephen, $e editor. 880 14 $6 246-00/(N $a Åʻưıı Ã¸Ã¦Ã°Ä Æ¡Ã¦ = $b Soviet metro stations 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117032920.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FF5D8956477411EC81CA9FE82DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
