Orthodox Chic

The second volume in Osnovy's series of visual studies of architecture and urban space. Alex Bykov, Oleksandr Burlaka and Sasha Kurmaz document post-Soviet religious architecture in Ukraine — from kiosks and converted garages to shopping-mall chapels and new cathedrals among apartment blocks — and reflect on its social, historical and political contexts: how faith, land, developers and public space intersect. Intro text by Asia Bazdyreva.
