Bemerkung:

"Philippe Chancel's photographs show how the political has been transfigured into an all-encompassing aesthetic, a totalitarian vision for a totalitarian regime. In finely orchestrated detail, flags, murals and slogans praise the ruling Korean Workers' Party, while monuments, statues and portraits glorify its leaders" (Klappentext).
