VERY FRESH CONDITION. THIS IS THE VERY FIRST PHOTOBOOK AUCTION ON CATAWIKI - dedicated entirely to the world of the former "DDR"/"GDR" ("GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC" or "EAST GERMANY") which existed from 1949 to 1990. Still largely undiscovered and unexplored, this field offers a wealth of fascinating discoveries for collectors. 5Uhr30.com presents exceptional works by renowned and emerging artists, survey works, compelling monographs, as well as extraordinarily rare small vintage catalogues, vintage children’s books and vintage factory photobooks; signed publications, posters, and much more. "Bewahrtes Vermächtnis" ("Preserved Memory") is about the commemoration of the Nazi regime in the GDR, especially the former concentration camps Buchenwald, Camp Dora, Ravensbrück and Sachsenhausen, but also other memorials. At the beginning there is a historical shot of children crammed behind barbed wire, the end is made up of scenes of children playing - this does not need to be explained in more detail."
