"Boris and Olga Ignatovich. Two faces of war"

War correspondents are chroniclers of the front, battles and everyday life. Talking about this profession, they often remember male photographers, although women were filming along with them at the front. Exhibition “Boris and Olga Ignatovich. Two Faces of War ”shows the terrible events of the 20th century through the eyes of two photographers: Boris and Olga Ignatovich, brother and sister.
