This is the first book ever published on the famous Russian photographer Boris Mikhailov's fascinating early body of work, the Yesterday s Sandwich series. Mikhailov, born in 1938, is the most influential Russian photographer living today. As an artist, a documentary photographer, and a social observer, Mikhailov has experimented with many photographic styles and his work is highly respected by both the photography world and lovers of contemporary art. In this series from the late 1960s and early 1970s, Mikhailov presents a series of images constructed by the overlaying of two color slides. This is a process that creates fascinating 'sandwiches', i.e. beautifully composed tableaux of glamorous naked women, surreal urban landscapes, and strange scenes of everyday Soviet life.
