Artemy Troitsky: SUBKULTURA

Meet the journalist at the launch of his book which shines a light on the rebellious heroes of Russia’s past, present and future.

Join us at the Calvert 22 Bookshop to meet journalist Artemy Troitsky at the launch of his new book SUBKULTURA: Stories of youth and resistance in Russia, 1815-2017, published by The New Social in collaboration with HOME.

These are the stories of a different Russia – not the land of tsars and generals, but of anarchists and artists, punks and dandies, gopniks and hipsters. Subkultura shines a light on the rebellious heroes of Russian society, the groups and individuals who have resisted conformity and shaped the nation’s culture from the margins, from Alexander Pushkin to Pussy Riot.

Artemy will talk about the book, answer your questions, and spin a short set of revolutionary pop songs.

The book will be available for purchase and to be signed by the author.
