Omschrijving

For fans of Joe Sacco, a panoramic, stunningly illustrated account of Russia and the post-Soviet space by an anti-Putin artist exiled from her homeland.

Even before Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine in 2022, dissent in Russia was an increasingly elusive commodity. Since then it has been effectively banned, as Russian dissidents are assassinated, imprisoned, or forced into exile. The result is that, both at home and abroad, the experience and texture of Russian society have become difficult to grasp. What is actually happening in Russia and the former USSR today? The Last Soviet Artist offers a vivid, original, brilliantly illustrated answer.

Banned from exhibiting her work at home, Victoria Lomasko is an exile and a dissident of the old school. Much ink has been spilled about Russia during the Putin years, but there is nothing like Lomasko's sui generis graphic reportage, unwavering in its humanity and its determination to find space for artistic freedom in a climate of near-total repression. Lomasko's first book, the award-winning Other Russias (n+1 Books), is now in its fourth printing and was translated into seven languages. The Last Soviet Artist will pick up where Other Russias left off, offering an urgent intervention that will further deepen Western readers' understanding of Russia at a moment of extreme cultural isolation. And if it ruffles some important feathers along the way, well--Lomasko is used to it.
