In Krasnoyarsk, a street photo exhibition was opened in Dzerzhinsky Square, dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory. A large -scale exhibition is an open -air museum.
It will present about 100 works – photographs from the funds of the Krasnoyarsk museums and personal archives of the front -line soldiers will alternate with the documents of the war. Pictures will talk about the labor exploits of the Siberian rear, the work of the ALSIB air route, emergency guns, the mugs of Osoaviahim and other enterprises and organizations approaching the victory. Each photo work is accompanied by a description of the event, place and time of photography.
Part of the exhibition is dedicated to the photographs of our fellow countryman photojournalist Igor Borisovich Venyukov. He shot the battles and life of fellow soldiers on an old FED camera. Many photos were published in the newspaper Krasnoyarsk Worker. There Venyukov continued to work after the war. In this case, the place of the exhibition is also symbolic – it is placed under the windows of the former building of the newspaper. The FED camera, which was used by the military commissars, will also be presented here.
In addition, there you can see the famous “TASS windows” – campaign posters reflecting the main events of the war.
The exhibition was organized by the press and mass communications agency of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. It can be visited until the end of May.
