This large-format book of Soviet propaganda posters allows the
reader to remove individual posters and is at once a revealing
historical document and a sublime example of graphic art at its
best. Dating from 1917 to the end of the Cold War, the posters in
this book feature the work of groundbreaking Russian artists such
as El Lissitzky and Alexander Rodchenko, alongside extraordinary
works by their contemporaries. Presented in full color, printed on
heavy paper, and in a large-format, the posters gathered here
represent the pinnacle of Russian avant-garde design from the 20th
century. They range in theme from the dangers of alcohol abuse and
the creeping Nazi menace, to illustrations of utopian harmony and
the Soviet industrial machine. A special feature of this book
allows for the removal of the posters, which have been designed to
fit standard frame sizes. A brief introduction offers a
chronological overview of the period that produced such eloquent
art, which has long been a major source of inspiration to artists
and designers.
