Hardcover. Condition: Fine in fine dustjacket. 1st Edition. 24 x 17 cm 478 pp with colour illustrations throughout. Mykhailov was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine. He received an education as an engineer and started to teach himself photography. He had a four-decade career as a Soviet factory photographer His work combines conceptual art and social documentary photography.Mikhailov had his first exhibition at the end of the 1960s. After the KGB found nude pictures of his wife he was laid off his job as an engineer and started to work full-time as a photographer. From 1968 to 1975 he shot several series documenting everyday scenes, the best known of them being the Red series. In these photographs he mainly used the colour red, to picture people, groups and city-life. Red symbolized the October Revolution, political party and the social system of Soviet society. According to Sabina Jaskot-Gill for Tate, "By drawing attention to the inescapable presence of the colour in the Ukrainian social landscape, the series suggests the extent to which communist ideology had permeated all aspects of Soviet life.".

Hardcover. Condition: gut. 1999. Boris Mikhailov, geboren 1938 in der Ukraine, ist Fotograf und rückte in den letzten Jahren zusehends ins Rampenlicht der Kunstwelt. So hatte er Einzelausstellungen im Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in der Photographer's Gallery, London, und in der DAAD Galerie, Berlin. Seit Herbst 2000 unterrichtet Mikhailov an der Harvard University. Im Jahr 2000 erhielt er den Fotobuchpreis des Internationalen Festivals für Fotografie in Arles und den Hasselblad-Preis. Boris Mikhailov, whose "Unfinished Dissertation" was published in 1998, focuses in "Les Miserables" on what he believes is the result of the breakup of the former Soviet Union. Though Mikhailov considers the conditions of his particular place of residence for over 50 years crucial to his work, he is not providing a recollection of the specific history of Kharkov, Ukraine. Rather, he brings out the "condition humaine" in this city characterized by industry and factories, by newly installed Coca Cola billboards as well as socialist architecture. Kharkov provides the backdrop for Mikhailov's moving portraits describing the decay of both social structures and individual lives. We witness street kids taking drugs, adults in search of food, trying to re-install their social self by cleaning their bodies in the artist's own apartment. Despite devastating poverty, the women and men in Mikhailov's images look back at us with great dignity. Their eyes express an unbroken will to survive in a social system that has broken down completely. Mikhailov depicts the harshness of everyday life in a society not as far away from ours as we might think. Zusatzinfo 439 farb. Abb.
