About the Book
"The reasons Soviet Empire fell are Pepsi Cola, McDonalds and Rock & Roll."
Time of Collapse is a Fine Art Photography book about an absurd collision of American Hollywood fiction versus Russian post-collapse reality. When the Iron Curtain fell all forms of Western culture seeped into the new Russian world, many of them were still illegal including Hollywood films. This book shows a mixture of post-Soviet reality and dramatic moments from Hollywood films of that time juxtaposed vs a harsh and sometimes brutal Russian reality. This book is an attempt to show what happens when two very different cultures collide, as well as to show that despite the differences, the two cultures are in a distinct relationship with one another.
