- First edition. One of 1000 copies of this impressive and wonderfully produced artists’ book, entirely composed with photographs taken in Nazi-Germany. Each photograph has a subtitle in Italian and German. Nearly each title starts with an accusative “they”: they burn books; they know about quality; they hide their traces... ; they take pictures of everything. A criticism on the use and misuse of the photographic image by the Nazi-regime.(dematteis - maffei nr. 1691).
