Synopsis:

With 365 calendar pages, Revolution Every Day juxtaposes Soviet graphic art―primarily posters from the 1920s and ‘30s, by artists such as Valentina Kulagina―with works on video and film, including excerpts from Dziga Vertov’s films, post-Soviet videos by artists such as Olga Chernysheva and more.
