Summary |
In 1960, Cuban photographer Alberto "Korda" Diaz snapped a photo of Ernesto "Che" Guevara. How did the iconic image end up on beer bottles and bikinis? This inquiry into the ethics and aesthetics of appropriation investigates how the enduring symbol of Cuba's revolution skyrocketed to fame and was ultimately devoured by its own worst enemy, capitalism |
