America’s Gift Shop

U.S. foreign policy gets broadsided with Phillip Toledano’s latest project, America the Gift Shop. In using the vocabulary of retail and specifically that of kitchsy holiday souvenirs, the repercussions of U.S. foreign policy is given a veneer of frivolity but one that barely masks atrocities committed in the name of democracy. Visit the gift shop here.
