Background information
"With the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Soviet Empire also began to crumble. At its heart had been a military system that exerted huge control and influence. Eric LUSITO was fascinated by the remains the military left behind. 'After the Wall. Traces of the Soviet Empire' coincides with the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall."

Content
For the photo volume 'After the Wall. Traces of the Soviet Empire', American photographer Eric LUSITO found extraordinary sites: military bases that were simply abandoned—from East Germany to Mongolia and from Poland to Kazakhstan. He also discovered a rich collection of objects and ephemera, including gas masks, propaganda posters, books, magazines, instruction manuals, and personal photographs.
