Samenvatting
Revolutionary Romances? Global Art Histories in the GDR looks at East Germany's relations-
rooted in a spirit of friendship and revolution-with its socialist "sister" countries in Asia, Africa, and
Latin America. The concepts of "international solidarity" and "friendship between nations" had
an inherent geopolitical agenda: as such, they not only determined East Germany's foreign policy
but also supported a multitude of transcultural contacts and became a key focus of propaganda
and the visual arts in the GDR. The book accompanying the exhibition of the same name presents
themes and motifs of actual and putative "revolutionary romances", including the ideals and
icons of socialist internationalism, artistic protests against war and violence, travel images, mail
art, and works produced by foreign art students in East Germany.
