German Tourist Postcards (1930s)
Watercolour and Acrylic on Paper.
German Tourist Postcards (1930s) are based on original postcards from the 1930s sourced in Berlin. Now an ideogram of evil banned in contemporary Germany, the swastikas remove the images from the present and through the weight of history distort their original meaning. The vistas are no longer beautiful, they are now tainted with a sinister quality.
