Taking cues from the Worker Photography Movement of the 1920s, Werker Collective delves into the visual representation of labor. In Werker 2: A Gestural History of the Young Worker, the focus shifts to the portrayal of workers in the former Soviet Union, highlighting their physical prowess and unwavering resolve. By juxtaposing Soviet imagery with archival materials, the book challenges conventional notions of the working body and delves into themes such as gender dynamics, feminism, and queerness.
