Frédéric Chaubin in Paris

2011: Frédéric Chaubin signs his TASCHEN book at store Paris.

About the book: Brutal beauty dominates in Frédéric Chaubin’s images of extreme Soviet architecture from the final years of the USSR. In these photographs, we explore the disappearing world of totalitarian structures, originally designed to dominate and exert omniscient power over civilians through both spectacular forms and austere aesthetics.
