"This history of the former German Democratic Republic's public murals reveals a barely known but visually and theoretically rich cultural legacy. This book traces the formal, functional and theoretical changes of the visual arts in the GDR's urban spaces. It shows how art, craft, design and architecture made up the terrain of a sustained struggle between practitioners and political leaders"--
Note:
Based on the author's thesis (Ph.D.)--Royal College of Art, 2014, under the title: Visual arts in the urban environment in the German Democratic Republic
