Ukrainian Modernism: Modernist Architecture of Ukraine

Ukraine's modernist buildings are an extraordinary blend of function, avant-garde aesthetics and ingenious design, but despite these qualities, they remain largely unrecognised. This is a result of several factors, including the stigma of belonging to the Soviet era, corruption, neglect, as well as the ongoing threat of destruction from both unscrupulous developers and war. Photographer Dmytro Soloviov has crossed Ukraine documenting them to form the most comprehensive publication available on the subject.

With an introduction by renowned architecture critic Owen Hatherley, complete with historical images, cements these buildings in a cultural and political context.
