From December 22, 2018 to April 7, 2019, at the Exhibition 3 of the Hongik University Daehangno Art Center, will be held. The exhibition introduces a collection of North Korean stamps, wrapping paper, comic books, invitations, propaganda posters, etc. collected by the Englishman Nicholas Bonner for many years. This exhibition was first showcased in the spring of 2018 at the "House of Illustration", the only illustration specialized public gallery in the UK. Korea was selected as the first country for the world tour exhibition.
Nicholas Bonner has been touring North Korea for 25 years and has gathered about 10,000 pieces of small everyday objects from North Korea that he could encounter, and about 200 of them will be introduced at this exhibition. The exhibits are representative designs and packages of products that North Koreans use in their everyday lives, thereby showing a new aspect to a lesser known society in North Korea. You can meet various aspects of daily life in North Korea through a hand-painted poster, a product design based on the five colors of our nation, and an "Enter Pyong-yang" video.
