Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed
"A photographic record of 90 weird and wonderful buildings from the last decades of the USSR. Photographer Frédéric Chaubin reveals 90 buildings sited in fourteen former Soviet Republics which express what he considers to be the fourth age of Soviet architecture. His poetic pictures reveal an unexpected rebirth of imagination." (source: www.taschen.com)
