As a result of their actions such as the "Punk Prayer" in Moscow's
Christ the Savior Cathedral and their subsequent trials, the girls
of Pussy Riot were transformed into icons of protest. The images of
the principal members, Nadezda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alekhina,
were seen all around the world before the two disappeared for two
years into Russian prison camps. Immediately after their release,
the successful Dutch entrepreneur and avid photographer Bert
Verwelius contacted the two women, setting into motion what was to
be an extraordinary photo shoot: using the activists' stories and
sketches of the prison camp, he depicted their living and working
conditions there as an impressive picture series. Yet Bert
Verwelius also shows us a very different, hidden side to the two
young women in this book, his first publication. With his sensitive
portraits, he captures the open and loveable nature of Nadezda
Tolokonnikova and Maria Alekhina-- not to mention their beauty.
You have never seen the women behind the masks quite like this
