Posters #7 & 8

8:30am Saturday morning, posters #7 & 8 were almost complete, with 2 out of the 3 building layers printed.

10pm Saturday night, posters #7 & 8 complete! Special thanks to Zachary Mann for his generosity of time and great team work in making these prints possible.

SF is in full swing spring mode, raising the temperatures and making printing all the more difficult. And all the more satisfying upon completion!

Listen Up

From radio THE VOICE OF RUSSIA:
“Two buildings of historical significance that have fallen prey to developers, the Detsky Mir department store and the Dynamo Football Stadium, lend a perspective on how landmark law differs from the reality of construction projects in Russia, and why Soviet architecture in particular is now in danger. We speak with Anna Bronovitskaya, a professor at the Moscow Institute of Architecture, and Marina Khrustalyova, the chairman of the Moscow Architecture Preservation Society, about the dangers posed to Soviet architecture in Moscow today.”
