NEW BOOK During a trip through Iraqi and Kurdistan in 2006, photographer Anoek Steketee and author Eefje Blankevoort found themselves in the amusement park Dream City in Duhok, an unexciting town near the border with Turkey and Syria. Reports of attacks, kidnappings and sectarian violence filled the newspapers on a daily basis. Meanwhile the Kurds, Arabs, American soldiers and segments of the Iraqi population that were submerged in a deadly struggle outside the gates rubbed shoulders inside Dream City.
The park was built on the grounds of a former military base for Saddam Hussein’s troops and became the ultimate symbol of freedom from and victory over the former Iraqi dictator. With her photographs, Steketee explores the way in which the amusement industry can unite these disparate groups in Iraq. The accompanying stories presented by Blankevoort give the images additional and unexpected context. This new, 168-page book is published by Kehrer Verlag in Germany and is available in both Dutch and English editions.
