Santa Barbara is the debut monograph by Diana Markosian, a talented artist who works at the intersection of photography and film. The series recreates the story of Markosian’s family’s journey from post-Soviet Russia to the U.S. in the 1990s.

The project pulls together staged scenes, film stills, and family pictures in an innovative and compelling hybrid of personal and documentary storytelling. In it, the artist grapples with the reality that her mother, seeking a better life for herself and her two young children, escaped Russia and came to America. Markosian’s family settled in Santa Barbara, a city made famous in Russia when the 1980s soap opera of that name became the first American television show broadcast there. Weaving together reenactments by actors, archival images, stills from the original Santa Barbara TV show, Markosian reconsiders her family’s story from her mother’s perspective, relating to her for the first time as a woman, and coming to terms with the profound sacrifices she made to become an American.

Picturing the hopes of Markosian’s mother to provide a different future for her children, the project emphasizes the hypercharged symbolism of the opportunities of America and the West, while serving as a personal reflection of the artist’s family history. Images are woven together with a script written by Markosian in collaboration with one of the original Santa Barbara writers, Lynda Myles, and is the basis for a new short film directed by the artist. Encapsulating different styles and storytelling techniques, Markosian proves to be at the forefront of a new generation of photographers pushing the boundaries of documentary.

A solo exhibition of the same name will open at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in February 2021. The work will then be exhibited at the International Center of Photography in New York.

Diana Markosian’s Santa Barbara recreates the story of her family’s journey from post-Soviet Russia to the U.S. in the 1990s.

The project pulls together staged scenes, film stills, and family pictures in an innovative and compelling hybrid of personal and documentary storytelling. In it, the artist grapples with the reality that her mother, seeking a better life for herself and her two young children, came to America as a mail-order bride. Markosian’s mother chose her future husband because he lived in Santa Barbara, a city made famous in Russia when the 1980s soap opera of that name became the first American television show broadcast there.
Weaving together reenactments by actors, archival images, stills from the original Santa Barbara TV show, Markosian reconsiders her family’s story from her mother’s perspective, relating to her for the first time as a woman, and coming to terms with the profound sacrifices she made to become an American.

Genre breaking, reads like a book, feels like a movie.

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 24 marzo 2021

Santa Barbara is a genre-breaking, new way of looking at family history. This exciting intersection of fiction and non fiction highlights the parallel between the SOAP OPERA in television and our own lives. Photographer, Diana Markosian, does something we all wish we could do - being brave enough to take those skeletons in our closet, confront them, and put them on display in a form that goes against the standard form of documentary photography. Santa Barbara reads like a book but feels like a movie - and there is a film that's part of the project that is equally brilliant, brave, powerful !!

Stunningly beautiful

One of the most beautiful and moving photography books in my growing collection. This is more than just a book though, it’s a window into an entire world. Markosian’s autobiographical blend of fact, fiction and fantasy is like nothing else out there. Deeply personal and emotionally raw yet presented with creative flair and beauty.
A must have and my favorite book of the year.

Incredible Visual Storytelling

Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 6 marzo 2021

This book was clearly an enormous undertaking. The author recreated not only her family story, but also a monumental period in time with the collapse of the Soviet Union.

The storytelling and visuals are stunning. It has been on my coffee table for months. I love jumping into it from time to time. It's also a great conversation piece when I host my friends.
