MONOCHROMATOR deconstructs selected films under a shared monochrome to reconstruct them for social relevance, putting the cinematic, the cultural, the artistic and the political in dialogue.
The first issue of MONOCHROMATOR deconstructs Barbie and Oppenheimer under a shared monochrome of “Birth of a Nation.” In 1945, the United States was reborn as the empire we experience, through the hard military power of the atomic bomb and the ‘soft’ capitalist power of corporations such as Mattel. MONOCHROMATOR takes Barbenheimer and proposes to rethink the blockbuster phenomenon within the landscape of current political and social discourses.
Based between Berlin and Seoul; 150mm x 235mm; 145 pages; June 2024
