About the Item
Putting aside his usual black and white palette, Hiroshi Watanabe uses color in his attempt to tell an unbiased story of North Korean culture and everyday life in "Ideology in Paradise".
From 2006 – 2007, Watanabe made trips to North Korea to investigate the myths that were spoken as fact in his native Japan. North Korea was described only as a country that kidnapped Japanese, allowed police to brutalize their citizens, and left the poor to die of starvation on the streets. Unconvinced by this one-sided perspective of North Koreans he wanted to investigate for himself. During his time in North Korea, he let his curiosity guide him and allowed the process to unfold organically without imposing any agenda. These images are rich in both content and aesthetics, giving the viewer a window into a moment in time, captured with a genuine respect that is visible in each of his images.
