Korean posters in London

DPRK ambassador at the exhibition


By New Worker correspondent

Korean modern poster art returned to a gallery in London’s now fashionable East End last weekend, with a display of 20 original hand-painted posters from the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK). At the opening ceremony Democratic Korean ambassador Choe Il said the posters reflected the reality of Juche Korea, which is defying the imperialist sanctions to advance under the banner of self-reliance.
All the posters were up for sale and visitors could also buy souvenirs, badges, and DPRK books and pamphlets at the literature table in the hall. The posters, covering a number of themes ranging from economic construction to sports, were part of an exhibition organised by the Korean Friendship Association (KFA), which regularly holds meetings and cultural events in the capital throughout the year.
