About the Item
The circa 1920 poster by Aleksandr Deineka exemplifies his distinctive approach to Soviet visual art during the early years of the Soviet Union. Known for his versatility and ability to convey powerful social and political messages, Deineka's works often highlighted the transformative impact of the socialist system on various aspects of life, including education, community, and equality.
This particular piece centers on the theme of children's welfare and education, a cornerstone of Soviet propaganda in the 1920s. By focusing on children engaged in outdoor activities and learning, Deineka underscores the Soviet state's commitment to nurturing the younger generation, portraying a new society where every child has access to opportunities for growth and development. The emphasis on a group dynamic reflects the collectivist ideals central to Soviet ideology.
The text on the poster reads: "Hey, take a look at my collar. Not nice—French!" This phrase conveys an ideological critique of foreign (French) influence, aligning with the Soviet Union's focus on self-sufficiency and national pride during its formative years. It underscores a rejection of bourgeois or Western styles, instead promoting the adoption of Soviet ideals, aesthetics, and values.
The poster's underlying message resonates with the broader Bolshevik narrative of progress, unity, and the rejection of pre-revolutionary inequality. It positions the Soviet Union as a beacon of enlightenment and care, using the innocence and promise of children as a symbol for the nation’s future.
Aleksandr Deineka, renowned for his later monumental works in the fields of painting and graphic design, consistently used his art to explore themes of industrialization, social change, and human aspiration. This early work demonstrates his skill in combining simplicity with evocative storytelling, capturing a pivotal moment in Soviet history where the new regime sought to redefine society through education and collective effort.
As a historical artifact, the poster offers modern audiences a glimpse into the priorities and aspirations of the Soviet state in its formative years. It stands as a testament to the role of art in shaping and disseminating political and cultural ideals.

1977 original propaganda poster by the Soviet artistic collective Koukryniksy
Located in PARIS, FR
The 1977 original poster by the Soviet artistic collective Koukryniksy reflects their renowned style of sharp political caricature and satire. Active from the 1920s to the 1970s, Koukryniksy, consisting of Mikhail Kupriyanov, Porfiry Krylov, and Nikolai Sokolov, produced some of the most influential propaganda of the 20th century. This piece addresses themes of anti-racism and anti-fascism, created during a period when Cold War tensions were high, and Soviet propaganda aimed to critique Western colonialism and racism. It was part of the USSR's broader messaging to inspire solidarity with global equality movements and expose perceived moral failings of rival nations. The poster employs bold symbolism and caricature to deliver a strong political message in line with the collective’s tradition of impactful satire. Today, works by Koukryniksy are valued as historical artifacts, offering insight into Soviet perspectives during the Cold War. This 1977 poster remains a sought-after piece for collectors interested in propaganda art...
