Brutal Posters: 20 Brutalist Pull-Out Prints
This large-format book brings together a striking collection of illustrated pull-out posters by Zupagrafika celebrating the ‘antiheroes’ of postwar modernist architecture across the former Eastern Bloc and ex-Yugoslavia – from neglected brutalist hotels and robot-shaped government buildings to monolithic concrete tower blocks and vast prefabricated housing estates – structures that have often been overlooked but have recently found their way into pop culture.
The result of over a decade of obsessive documentation by David Navarro and Martyna Sobecka, this series captures the raw, geometric patterns of brutalist and modernist landmarks – some of them now demolished – that reshaped the cityscapes of Central and Eastern Europe in the second half of the 20th century.
Opening with a foreword by architectural historian Anna Cymer, Brutal Posters includes 20 detachable prints, creating a unique visual archive of this vanishing architectural legacy.
Paperback, 56 pages, 27 x 38 cm.
