Wolfgang Mueller Wolfgang Mueller's photographs, taken during the run-up to St. Petersburg's anniversary celebrations, tell the stories of children and teenagers who live in the roofs and attics of disused buildings, five or six floors above the city's streets. It is here that they hope to find some sort of a home where they can sleep, take drugs without being apprehended, and make money from prostitution. Many of them have escaped from apathetic parents or decaying orphanages. "Karat" is the brand name of a shoe polish containing solvents that many of them inhale. A book of the same title published by Nazraeli Press accompanies this exhibition. All work is available for purchase. For more information, or to order prints, contact printsales@tomblaugallery.com
