      In this special photo project award-winning Russian photo artist Olga Michi traces our fascination with masks, completed by lenticular cover. Text in English, French, German, and Russian.

      Art, war, carnival or cult — masks have two sides: They conceal and hide, and at the same time create new personalities, strange and captivating at once. So, too, do masks reveal world views of time and place: cult masks from Africa, mediaeval knight helmets, fantasy masks of famous film heroes like Darth Vader, or gas masks and VR glasses as modern functional objects.

      In this new photo book, Russian photographer Olga Michi traces our millennia-old fascination with masks. Her expressive pictures place the masks centre-stage, creating a new, surrealistic aesthetic. With fascinating texts on each mask’s cultural-historical significance, this high-quality photo book delights, informs, and ignites the imagination.

      Text in English, French, German, and Russian.
