Interesting and beautifully made book with photographs of Mussolini's Italy and Hitler's Germany, reflecting the mechanisms of cultural manipulation and ideological power. Captions in German and Italian.
Manipolazione di Cultura – Manipulation der Kultur is an artist book by Fabio Mauri, published in 1976 by La Nuova Foglio Editrice. The work features 42 black and white photographs mounted on pages with a significant black margin at the bottom. Each image is accompanied by very small captions in both Italian and German, which are designed to obscure or banalize the original meaning of the images, exploring themes of ideology and cultural manipulation. The book was initiated as a graphic project in 1971, completed in 1973, and printed in Pollenza.
