Socialist reality in documentary photographs of Vladimir Vorobyov

The photographs of Vladimir Vorobyov, as well as other members of TriVA, the creative association of which he was a member, are of great interest to us. The mere fact that the studio’s work was objectionable to the USSR government and, as a result, it was closed, already makes us feel very curious about the work of this Novokuznetsk photographer.

Vorobyov did not recognize staged shooting and any means of editing pictures. He sought to make the most frank, vital and truthful shots about life in the Soviet Union in the 70-80s.
