FAME ’82 — Fame’82
In 1982, under martial law, Poland’s Soviet-backed state put Chopin on a failing 5,000-złoty. Fame’82 gives him another kind of fame, closer to Elton John than the Party. Like Magritte’s pipe: this is not Chopin, this is not money. The Eastern Bloc’s collapse, as if it happened in a disco.
