The best works of Russian photographers at World Press Photo 1955-2015
We have already written more than once about the good deeds that regularly take place within the framework of the Generation M project, but it is simply impossible to ignore their latest activity.
In December, Novosibirsk will host a series of performances of the play "Generation of Mowgli", the main theatrical part of the project. On the eve of this event, the project brings to the city a photo exhibition “Grand Prix in Russian. Photos of Russian and Soviet Laureates of World Press Photo 1955–2015”. And as our usually capricious and very selective photo editor said, having looked through the archive of the upcoming exhibition for this publication, “everything is a masterpiece here, everything must be staged.”
Enjoy!
