    Summary note
    "East / West is a two-piece publication that combines footage of Magnum photographer Harry Gruyaert, who in the 1980s portrayed significant differences between the life on the east and west sides of the Iron Curtain. He did that in his familiar, mysterious style, in which light and sensuality are central. The first part shows the glittering glamor of Las Vegas and Los Angeles in 1981; The second part was the cool rigidity of the Moscow regime in 1989, just before the collapse of the Soviet Union. This book collects hundreds of photos, of which more than half have never been published before. It is a stunning document that shows the contrasts between the East and the West and provides an enchanting insight into a captivating and crucial period from world history"--Provided by vendor
