Collage printed to paper using the the 2003 photograph taken at the Abu Grahib prison in Iraq by Ivan Frederick called "The Hooded Man"; the 1972 photograph of Phan Thi Kim, called "The Terror of War" by Nick Ut, and a photograph of a 2003 US $100 banknote (FC 042211886 A) taken by FIATFIRE.
Three photographs. The Hooded Man from Abu Ghraib, 2003. The Terror of War from Vietnam, 1972. A US $100 banknote, 2003. FIATFIRE placed them in the same frame and titled the result Persistence of Hegemony. The argument does not need explaining. The dates do the work. The collage format is correct for this material. Collage is the medium of juxtaposition, the form that says: these things belong together, even if no one has put them together before. FIATFIRE is not illustrating a thesis. The image is the thesis. The starting bid is 300,000 sats. The buy now is 600,000. The work documents something that cost considerably more than that.
Giclée collage print on paper. 16 x 20 inches. Unframed. Ships from artist.
