Photographer Christopher Herwig first noticed the unusual architecture of Soviet-era bus stops during a 2002 long-distance bike ride from London to St. Petersburg. Challenging himself to take one good photograph every hour, Herwig began to notice surprisingly designed bus stops on otherwise deserted stretches of road. Twelve years later, Herwig had covered more than 18,000 miles in 14 countries of the former Soviet Union, traveling by car, bike, bus and taxi to hunt down and document these bus stops.
The local bus stop proved to be fertile ground for local artistic experimentation in the Soviet period, and was built seemingly without design restrictions or budgetary concerns. The result is an astonishing variety of styles and types across the region, from the strictest Brutalism to exuberant whimsy.
Soviet Bus Stops is the most comprehensive and diverse collection of Soviet bus stop design ever assembled, including examples from Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia, Abkhazia, Georgia, Lithuania, Latvia, Belarus and Estonia. Originally published in a quickly sold-out limited edition, Soviet Bus Stops, named one of the best photobooks of 2014 by Martin Parr, is now available in a highly anticipated, expanded smaller-format trade edition.

就是把平白无奇的东西拍成了有意义的事件
评分99p的车站让人印象深刻
评分印刷分辨率确实一般,标的是新加坡印刷的,亚美尼亚和阿布哈兹的站台最有特色不过亚美尼亚的大都荒废了,阿布哈兹的是非常独特的类似于软体流线的风格,而且都贴了陶瓷碎片花纹,其中立陶宛的状况最好,似乎一直在使用中
评分有一些车站真的好看!非常有那种废弃文明的感觉
评分就是把平白无奇的东西拍成了有意义的事件
