Amazing futuristic bus stop in Zolotarivka village, Donetsk region.
'Soviet Bus Stops' never get old! Now that there's a documentary film out on this project, we thought we'd repost some of the photos from Christopher Herwig's second volume in the series, published by @fuelpublishing And for those who'd like to see the film — premiering TOMORROW, Oct 2 and TUESDAY, Oct 4, in Canada @viffest along with a Q&A with @herwig_photo — please see the link in our bio or go to: https://viff.org/whats-on/soviet-bus-stops Film poster and title sequence also by @fuelpublishing Directed by Kristoffer Hegnsvad @soviet_busstops #sovietbusstops #fueldesign #fuelpublishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CjOKSw6p__D/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
TOMORROW, Oct 2 and TUESDAY, Oct 4, Vancouver International Film Festival presents the 'Soviet Bus Stops' documentary along with a Q&A with photographer Christopher Herwig. Film poster and title sequence by @fuelpublishing “There’s a bus stop I want to photograph.” This may sound like a parody of an esoteric festival film, but Canadian Christopher Herwig’s photography project is entirely in earnest, and likely you will be won over by his passion for this unusual subject within the first five minutes. Soviet architecture of the 1960s and 70s was by and large utilitarian, regimented and mass-produced. Yet the bus stops @herwig_photo discovers on his journeys criss-crossing the vast former Soviet Bloc are something else entirely: whimsical, eccentric, flamboyantly artistic, audacious, colorful. They speak of individualism and locality, concepts anathema to the Communist doctrine. Herwig wants to know how this came to pass and tracks down some of the original unsung designers, but above all he wants to capture these exceptional roadside way stations on film before they disappear. This is a joyous film about the intersection of photography, creativity, politics and history, and you won’t look at a bus stop the same way again.

Это мегакруто, чувак натирал ляжки 12 лет, бороздя по просторам бывшего коммунистического пространства и снимая бетонные автобусные остановки. Эти остановки знакомы мне с детства, так как с любимым братом все детство провели в регионах, но никогда не задумывался на тему уникальности и брутальности этих общественных конструкций. Да и не задумывался на тему того, что многие москвичи никогда и не видели подобных творений советских дизайнеров, а новые поколения и не увидят, учитывая подход к развитию областей, да и добираться будет не всем по карману, бензин дорожает))) #Repost @herwigphoto with @get_repost ・・・ #sovietbusstops Volume 2.
