Abstract

This article is devoted to identifying and analyzing the mechanisms of traditional visual documentation of protests and the formation of images and symbols in Russian protest photography, as well as its functioning in the modern media space. In this article, we will dwell in detail both on photographs and series of specific documentary artists, and on the functioning of photographs directly in the media space, since political photography is inseparable from the fact of its use in the media. Nevertheless, we will explore visuality to a greater extent and will focus on visual images and symbols of political photography, on the individual practices of photographers in this genre.
