• Model Soviets. Under contract with MIT Press. Addressing the Soviet obsession with construction in the 1920 and 30s with particular attention to the city of Moscow, this book explores how documentary images of architecture鈥攑hotographs of models, still and moving images of buildings under scaffolding, and representations of completed works鈥攅mblematized the construction of the Soviet state. Interdisciplinary in approach, the book reveals how images of designs, of buildings under construction, and of completed edifices presented utopian visions as monumental facts even as the nation itself remained chaotically under construction.
