Sputnik Photos

Sputnik Photos is an international collective of East-Central European photographers established in 2006.

The experience of the fall of communism in their region became a starting point for collective discussion of the social, cultural, and political processes that take place there. Using photography, film and photo books, the collective has been creating a record of the transformations in the countries of the former Eastern Bloc. In pursuing their activity, Sputnik members collaborate with curators, writers, graphic designers, and cultural managers. Engaged in documentary practice, they investigate its boundaries, modern dimension, and function. Importantly, Sputnik is engaged in creating a diversity of visual education platforms which support and promote young artists from the region.
