Paperback, 136 pagina's / pages, ENG / NL / FR, 260 x 260 x 10 mm, New, 80 b/w photo's, . ISBN 9789461618443. Met deze reeks neemt Indra Laenens je mee op zijn 'imaginaire reis' door Wereldoorlog I. Vanuit zijn jeugdige fascinatie voor oorlogs-fotografie, vind je talrijke fotocollages met zelfportretten geïnspireerd door de volkse taferelen van Bruegel en de zwart-wit-fotografie van weleer met hun sterk informatieve karakter. De foto's uit de Eerste Wereldoorlog inspireren de fotograaf om waarheidsgetrouw te werken op gebied van emotie en beleving, maar met een eigen kijk op die momenten geïnspireerd door gidsenverhalen en boeken. Het principe van het dupliceren van het 'zelf' is meteen een onderzoek naar de limieten van het fotografische medium. Bovendien is het boek een sterke oproep tot vrede, tot 'no more war'.

He wonders whether it might not be possible that 'some persons for their Sins here will be doomed hereafter to four thousand Years of amusement [last five words underlined] namely 1000 of Morning Visits - 1000 Dining out - 1000 seeing pictures & Statues - 500 flirting and 500 routes - Total 4,000 -'.
