About

The documentary photography of Yuri Feklistov is a look into the past without makeup and censorship. In his frames are the perestroika, the 90s, the living history of the country, and the people who changed its face. The exhibition will show not the ceremonial, but the real Russia - with its pain, hopes, paradoxes, and fragile freedom. It is a chronicle that breathes. The exhibition "Frame Hunger: Yuri Feklistov" is a powerful visual archive of an era of change. Photographs taken in the 1980s and 1990s capture the moment when censorship disappeared, and life burst into the lenses of cameras with unprecedented force. For Feklistov, this was not just a period of his career, but a time of true professional freedom - a rare case when a documentarian was granted the right to capture life as it was. The name of Yuri Feklistov needs no introduction - his photographs have been published in "Ogonyok", "Itogi", and other iconic publications. He became the author of the cult frame in which Rostropovich stands with a gun in the corridor of the White House in August 1991. His reports are not staged - they are filled with emotions, spontaneous moments, and a unique atmosphere. Feklistov literally lived inside his plots, capturing fragile and significant moments of the era. The exhibition continues the series "Frame Hunger", representing key Russian photojournalists of the late 20th century. The focus is not only on the personal style of the master but also on the context of the time in which he worked. This is an era when photography became a powerful tool of truth, and the street became the main studio. At that time, there was a demand for authentic images, and it was Feklistov who knew how to find them. Special attention is paid to the role of photography in transforming public consciousness. The works in the exhibition tell about real people, street scenes, rallies, the backstage of power, and the everyday life of new Russia. This is an honest story through the eyes of an eyewitness - without embellishments, but with immense human warmth. Ideas on where to go in Yekaterinburg are collected on our website.
