    „Völkerfreundschaft“ is a enlarged silkscreen print of a postcard of the only cruize-ship owned by the former German Democratic Republic.

    The name of the ship „Völkerfreundschaft“ is unique in german language, deriving from the marxist social class theory. „Friendship among peoples“ would be the closest translation to this utopian ideal.
