At the intersection of visual, graphic, and cinematic arts, movie posters offer a unique and fascinating record of a particular cultural zeitgeist. This book brings together 250 posters from the Soviet Union of the 1920s and early 1930s to explore the energy and inventiveness of that period, before Socialist Realism became the official artistic doctrine.
Drawn from the private collection of connoisseur Susan Pack, the selection includes works by 27 different artists. From the boldness of form to the architectural elements, each artist presents a distinct character and aesthetic, uninfluenced by Hollywood's allure, and prefers more serious, impressive, and provocative images, often marked by unusual angles, dynamic compositions, and subversive close-ups.
