Marxizm de Sad 1998

"Marxizm de Sad" is a 1998 photograph by Arsen Savadov, featuring a group of children in a staged setting. The children are dressed in white and wearing bunny ears, creating a whimsical and unsettling juxtaposition. The composition evokes a sense of Soviet-era nostalgia, while the title, referencing the Marquis de Sade, introduces a provocative element of subversion and critique. This photograph reflects Savadov's interest in exploring themes of power, identity, and social control, while also referencing the historical and cultural context of the Soviet Union.
