The Moscow Metro is a unique place. With a network of 400
kilometers of lines, exceptionally deep tunnels and stations, and
nearly nine million passengers a day, it is one of the most heavily
frequented underground subway systems in the world. Katharina
Gruzei explored it over several years and now presents an
aesthetically fascinating and socioculturally remarkable
photographic survey. Ideologically charged and symbolic of Russia's
eventful history, the Metro was started as a prestige project and
simultaneously conceived to also be used as a bunker. It was always
intended as a place for people to congregate and is still today a
living space where social, political and societal tendencies are
made legible. With her photo series, the artist enables an
extraordinary journey through time and space in the underground of
Moscow, a metropolis of millions.
