Exposing the Private Face of Ferdinand E. Marcos: An Online Exhibit

Exposing the Private Face of Ferdinand E. Marcos is an online exhibit on The Private Face of Ferdinand E. Marcos, a propaganda booklet published by the National Media Production Center. The exhibit’s main purpose is to illustrate the import of photographs in peddling propaganda for autocrats, showing how these images and their one sentence captions, these cultural artifacts of despotic rule, can transcend time and may even manage to evince sympathy for the Marcoses and stoke a desire for the power that they once wielded.
