This large-format book brings together a bold collection of illustrated pull-out posters by Zupagrafika, celebrating the 'antiheroes' of post-war modernist architecture across the former Eastern Bloc and ex-Yugoslavia - from derelict brutalist hotels and robot-shaped government buildings to monolithic concrete tower blocks and vast prefabricated housing estates - structures that have often been overlooked but recently found their way into pop culture. Based on over a decade of obsessive documentation by David Navarro and Martyna Sobecka, this series captures the raw, geometric patterns of brutalist and modernist landmarks - some of them now demolished - that reshaped the cityscapes of Central and Eastern Europe in the mid-20th century. Opening with a foreword by architectural historian Anna Cymer, Brutal Posters contains 20 detachable affiches, creating a unique visual archive of this vanishing architectural legacy. Detached poster size: 270 mm x 380 mm.
