East Pyongyang Grand Theatre Photograph - Limited Edition of 15

Limited edition of 15. C-type print on Fuji Crystal archival paper with a semi-matt finish. Individually numbered and signed on reverse. Journalist and photographer Oliver Wainwright travelled to North Korea in 2015, gaining a rare glimpse behind closed doors in the most secretive country in the world. His photographs are collected in a new book, Inside North Korea, published by Taschen. One of three major theatres in the capital, the East Pyongyang Grand Theatre was built in 1989 as an interlocking composition of two buildings, one semicircular, one rectangular, containing a 3,500-seat auditorium along with dozens of rehearsal rooms. A renovation in 2007 saw the lobby fitted with plaster mouldings, highly polished stone tiles and a huge relief mural on the wall, while the theatre was decorated with scalloped peach-coloured walls, purple-upholstered seats and a bright-blue vinyl floor, in-keeping with the predominant aesthetic of complementary colour schemes.
