From winter to winter. Fascinating Vorkuta available at the Presidential Library’s virtual exhibition

On November 27 a multimedia exhibition “From Winter to Winter” marking the 80th anniversary of Vorkuta was opened in the Presidential Library. The exhibition with works by famous Vorkuta photographers Timur Kuziev, Sergei Shcherbak and Nadezhda Kozhevnikova has been prepared by the National Library of Komi Republic. 

The photographs illustrate the city at different times of the year, starting from November - on November 26, Vorkuta celebrates its birthday. Then, month after month, visitors to the exhibition can watch how the city gradually changes: from polar winter nights to polar summer days.

The main genre of photography is landscape. It literally immerses the viewer in a riot of colors of nature and amazing natural phenomena - mother-of-pearl clouds and northern lights, winter elements and the dazzling spring sun.

In each of the 70 photographs, the authors’ great love for the city and the people living here is felt.

To visit the exhibition “From Winter to Winter” one must make an appointment in advance by calling (812) 334-25-14 or sending an email at excursion@prlib.ru.
