Description:
Berkeley.: University of California Press.. (c.1991).. Numerous black and white photographic and line illustrations, xv +153pp, index, notes, dustjacket, large octavo. Samir al-Khalil uses artefacts such as 'The Victory Arch' in Baghdad "to illuminate the nature of dictatorship, the relation between developed and developing countries, and the uses and true value of art. He demonstrates brilliantly how the [Saddam] regime has twisted both local and Western tradition to produce a highly emotive cocktail - citing Andy Warhol and Robert Venturi as foremost among the unwitting culprits."
