Kuznetsov, Zmeul, and Kagarov offer this illustrated aesthetic analysis of the Moscow Metro. Contributions from the three primary authors as well as other contributors analyze the Metro as a
symbol of the Russian capital; as an accumulated record of Soviet, post-Soviet, and New Russian aesthetic; as a fusion of engineering and artistry; as an infrastructure project proving
continual devotion; and as an evolving display of branding and Muscovite identity. The greater part of the book is composed of glossy full-color photographs of the stations, railways,
blueprints, maps and tickets while essays are thinly interspersed. The spine contains a satin bookmark ribbon. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
