• Does History has its own colour? And what about the colour of disaster? Where does it meet with reflection on photography? This essay combines considerations on the use of colours in Boris Mikhailov’s photography and their historiosophical role in reflection on the decline of the Soviet Union and the years of transformation, with the question about “Chernobyl effect” in Soviet and post-Soviet society, especially in the context of political visibility / invisibility of radiation.
