Specificatii
In 2003, after returning from a monthlong stay in Baghdad, American
artist Paul Chan was given a gift from a colleague in the
human-rights group Voices of the Wilderness: a copy of three
speeches on democracy written by Saddam Hussein in the 1970s,
before he became president of Iraq. The speeches, compiled here for
the first time in English, are politically perverse, yet eerily
familiar. The then vice president of Iraq characterizes social
democracy as demanding authority, and defines free will as the
patriotic duty to uphold the good of the state. This volume takes
the speeches as an opportunity to ask what democracy means from the
standpoint of a notorious political figure who was anything but
democratic, and to reflect on how promises of freedom and security
can mask the reality of repressive regimes. With drawings by Paul
Chan, including a new suite in its entirety, and essays by Bidoun's
Negar Azimi, philosopher and artist Nickolas Calabrese and
journalist Jeff Severns Guntzel, this book is the inaugural
copublication of the Deste Foundation for Contemporary Art and
Chan's own Badlands Unlimited.
