Ryōan-ji Temple, Kyoto, Japan - 1450; The Ryōan-ji garden is considered one of the finest surviving examples of kare-sansui ("dry landscape"), a refined type of Japanese Zen temple garden design generally featuring distinctive larger rock formations arranged amidst a sweep of smooth pebbles (small, carefully selected polished river rocks) raked into linear patterns that facilitate meditation. .

'Soviet Bus Stops' never get old! Now that there's a documentary film out on this project, we thought we'd repost some of the photos from Christopher Herwig's second volume in the series, published by @fuelpublishing⁠ ⁠ And for those who'd like to see the film — premiering TOMORROW, Oct 2 and TUESDAY, Oct 4, in Canada @viffest along with a Q&A with @herwig_photo — please see the link in our bio or go to: https://viff.org/whats-on/soviet-bus-stops ⁠ ⁠ Film poster and title sequence also by @fuelpublishing⁠ Directed by Kristoffer Hegnsvad⁠ ⁠ @soviet_busstops #sovietbusstops #fueldesign #fuelpublishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CjOKSw6p__D/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

TOMORROW, Oct 2 and TUESDAY, Oct 4, Vancouver International Film Festival presents the 'Soviet Bus Stops' documentary along with a Q&A with photographer Christopher Herwig.⁠ ⁠ Film poster and title sequence by @fuelpublishing⁠ ⁠ “There’s a bus stop I want to photograph.” This may sound like a parody of an esoteric festival film, but Canadian Christopher Herwig’s photography project is entirely in earnest, and likely you will be won over by his passion for this unusual subject within the first five minutes. Soviet architecture of the 1960s and 70s was by and large utilitarian, regimented and mass-produced. Yet the bus stops @herwig_photo discovers on his journeys criss-crossing the vast former Soviet Bloc are something else entirely: whimsical, eccentric, flamboyantly artistic, audacious, colorful. They speak of individualism and locality, concepts anathema to the Communist doctrine. Herwig wants to know how this came to pass and tracks down some of the original unsung designers, but above all he wants to capture these exceptional roadside way stations on film before they disappear.⁠ ⁠ This is a joyous film about the intersection of photography, creativity, politics and history, and you won’t look at a bus stop the same way again.⁠ ⁠ For more information about the film and premier screening at @viffest visit https://viff.org/whats-on/soviet-bus-stops or click linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ @soviet_busstops #sovietbusstops #fueldesign #fuelpublishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CjK7xCtOFV3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Trying to process what's happening in Ukraine and filled with sadness, anxiety and confusion, we're featuring a few @nielsack photos today from 'Looking for Lenin,' published by our Soviet weirdness experts @fuelpublishing⁠ ⁠ This eerie book captures the chilling beauty of Ukraine’s Lenin statues, toppled in the name of decommunization⁠ ⁠ Photographer Niels Ackermann and journalist @seb.gobert both based in Kyiv, scoured the country in search of the remains of these toppled figures. They found them in the most unlikely of places: Lenin inhabits gardens, scrap yards and store rooms. He has fallen on hard times—cut into pieces; daubed with paint in the colors of the Ukrainian flag; transformed into a Cossack or Darth Vader—but despite these attempts to reduce their status, the statues retain a sinister quality, resisting all efforts to separate them from their history.⁠ ⁠ These compelling images are combined with witness testimonies to form a unique insight, revealing how Ukrainians perceive their country, and how they have grappled with the legacy of their Soviet past to conceive a new vision of the future.⁠ ⁠ #lookingforlenin #fuelpublishing #ukraine https://www.instagram.com/p/CaXX2CwFQD9/?utm_medium=tumblr
