George Georgiou sarà presente all’inaugurazione insieme a Vanessa Winship, altra fotografa di fama internazionale, e per l’occasione presenterà al pubblico bolognese il libro da cui è tratta la mostra, suo primo progetto editoriale, Fault Lines/Turkey/East/West (Edizioni Postcart, aprile 2010).

Il progetto Fault Lines/Turkey/East/West ha come focus la Turchia, una nazione che ha una posizione strategica dal punto di vista geografico e simbolico: è infatti crocevia tra Europa e Asia, tra la cultura Occidentale e quella Orientale. "Fault lines", linea di faglia, nel linguaggio della geopolitica indica proprio un confine tra due aree geografiche antigue in conflitto.

  • Final Thesis Uliana Bazar
    THESIS LITTLE ODESSA Uliana Bazar New Media Photojournalism In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Art Corcoran College of Art and Design New Media Photojournalism Washington, D.C. Spring 2013 Uliana Bazar Thesis 2013 “Little Odessa” 2 www.ulianabazar.com All Images and Writings are Copyrighted Uliana Bazar 2013 Uliana Bazar Thesis 2013 “Little Odessa” 3 www.ulianabazar.com III. Project Abstract This project concerns Post-Soviet community in Brighton Beach, New York. Little Odessa is as much a state of mind as a location on a map. It is stuck between two worlds; a place of ceaseless nostalgic fantasy of countries left behind. It was in Brighton Beach during the 70ʼs that Soviet immigrants forged a common bond through language and pop culture; guarding an identity that prevents them from adapting to their new world. Cultural similarities echo in everything the locals do and say – from what they eat and wear, to how they socialize and worship. However, as the younger generations living in Little Odessa assimilate and the older generations pass away, this microcosm of Post-Soviet culture is both changing and disappearing. I have documented this community for the past year, and I hope that these photographs will serve as a valuable record of early-21st- century life in this vibrant neighborhood. IV. Introduction to your project My decision to document this community was an easy one. In 2007 I, myself, emigrated to the U.S. from Ukraine. (However it wasnʼt until five years later that I actually visited Brighton Beach.) Because I have shared the experience of immigrating to a new country with most of my subjects, I can relate Uliana Bazar Thesis 2013 “Little Odessa” 4 www.ulianabazar.com to them on a very intimate level.
