Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Yes To A Rosy Future documents Swiss photographer Nicolas Righettis stay in Syria in 2012, captioned with statements from Bashar alAssads official speeches. An afterword by Christian Brandle, director of the Zurich Design Museum, considers the relationship between the ruler and his people and how his image is used to hint at his omnipresence a smiling face, always there for his loyal subjects.It was an overwhelming sight that met photographer Nicolas Righetti when he arrived in Dasmascus in May 2007. Preparations for the coming election were in full swing and the city was smothered with one image, that of the unopposed President, Bashar alAssad, who was to be re-elected another seven years. From monumental portraits to publicity handouts in both public and private spaces, the ruler of Syria became unavoidable and the message was clear; 'Yes To A Rosy Future' was emblazoned on campaign posters everywhere. Yes To A Rosy Future documents Righettis stay in Syria and presents the photos taken during this time, captioned with statements from Bashar alAssads official speeches. An afterword by Christian Brandle, director of the Zurich Design Museum, considers the relationship between the ruler and his people and how his image is used to hint at his omnipresence a smiling face, always there for his loyal subjects.With the Arab Spring and the protests that took place in Syria starting in early 2011, this relationship was questioned and tested. One thing is certain Bashar alAssad is still there for his people, whether they want him to be or not. The propagandistic images and slogans of 2007 have taken on a new relevance: images of triumphant power and his obdurate statements reveal a completely different portrait, that of the smiling face of repression.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Saparmurat Niyazov, President of the Turkmen Soviet Socialist Republic of Turkmenistan, died early on 21st December 2006 in a strange new world of his own creation. His official title, bestowed on himself, was 'Turkmenbashi', or 'leader of Turkmen'. Coming from a humble orphaned background, he worked his way up through the Communist party, and was made President of a newly independent Turkmenistan from the collapsing Soviet Union. The surreal reality was a twenty-year long dictatorship, considered one of the hardest in the world, where he gave his people free salt, electricity and gas - but also the lowest minimum wage possible.Even the months of the year were renamed to pay homageto Niyazov and his family. In 2001, all internet cafes were closed and ballet and opera were banned, and in 2004 the state even forbade young men from growing long hair or beards and it was prohibited for news readers to wear make-up."Love Me: Turkmensitan" is a vivid, colourful and often very humorous depiction of a country dominated by the dark shadow of its ex-leader, with full-technicolour depictions of its capital, its monumentsand its people, now released from a surreal chapter in their country's history. Each saturated image is accompanied by an actual quote from Niyazov, forming a strong and often outrageous commentary. A collection of photographs depicting the surreal reality of Turkmenistan whilst under the harsh dictatorship of Saparmurat Niyazov.
