The proliferation during the 1930s of the photo-based, mechanically reproducible, mural after El Lissitzy devised his photomural installation for the Soviet Pavilion at the 'Pressa' exhibition in Cologne in 1928 was due to the fact that it was the easiest medium to produce mural-sized images, and by that token was spectacularly instrumentalized by totalitarian regimes. This phenomenon contributed further to deterritorialize and reduce the lifespan of the mural-size image to that of an event.
