dc.description.abstractBroadcast Transcript: As the leisure-suited hereditary leader of communist North Korea, Kim Jong-Il maintains strict control over the art produced in the country. Acceptable subjects include landscapes, mountains and flowers free of political undertones. Some of these are being displayed for the first time ever outside of North Korea at a gallery in Germany. The artwork may be apolitical but ideology is rampant. Take the mountain shown in so many paintings. It's no ordinary mountain, no. It's Mt. Baekdu, the site in the Kim mythos where Kim Jong-Il was born, his birth heralded by a bright star and the instantaneous change of season from winter to spring. And the flowers? They're the North Korean national flowers, kimjongilia and kimilsungia. The gallery hopes these images will bring in high bids despite the ideological overtones. Or maybe because of them. #ceas #hacker #NorthKorea
