David Attie - Russian Self Portraits

55

In 1976 at an American Cultural Exchange Exhibit in Kiev - 'Photography USA' at the height of the cold war, Russian men, women and children could view themselves in a full length mirror and assume whatever stance and expression they considered appropriate, before operating a long cable-release that triggered lighting/shutter of a view-camera. This activated further cameras, each from different view-points. The results being somewhat different than expected.
