Good Morning !
The Soviet Nouveau Society At the Height of the Communist Elect Soviet Union Abundance
Via : https://sergeytsvetkov.livejournal.com/2689658.html
The life of the Soviet nouveau riche fantasy, at the expense of a rich cultural heritage, as per the American dream...
The Great Late Spaced Aged Mid-Century Modern Bachelor Pad, At The Price of Perdition (Includes jars of winter preserves..))
The whole USSR in one photo at the peak of everyday "abundance": a panel "two" or "three", a furniture wall, carpets, a TV, a "turntable", crystal, books, blanks for the winter... I understand, with great irony. Let's laugh at the past.
The great Googie Woogie mid-century modern Soviet society, with everything you need!
I say that with dismay. Not so much the advent of the future as running from the past.
In America, horseback riding into the future was the pursuit of a new fashion.
And to pay the price of history for this dream fantasy.
Yes, the people in the photo are sitting at the broken trough of the great utopia.
P.S. - As an artist in Canada, I have a lot of these ghosts in my closet, I think.
This is great!
