Last days for Salt’s exhibition
Salt Galata’s exhibition “Trespassing Modernities” is continuing to analyze post-war Soviet architecture.

According to the exhibition text, “Almost 25 years after the [collapse] of the Soviet Union, still little is known, beyond the former empire’s borders, about the social fabric that wove it together.
