Long live our happy socialist Motherland (Poster), 1935, by Gustav Klutsis - A Powerful Visual Manifesto of Soviet Ideals
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This iconic poster from 1935, created by the talented artist Gustav Klutsis, encapsulates the spirit and fervor of the Soviet Union during its early years. With vibrant colors and bold typography, this piece serves as a visual manifesto for the ideals of socialism and communism. The central image portrays a heroic shock worker, symbolizing the dedicated labor force that propelled the country's industrialization efforts forward. The worker is surrounded by symbols representing various aspects of Soviet life – factories, agricultural fields, and technological advancements – all contributing to building a prosperous socialist society. Klutsis masterfully employs color lithography to create an atmosphere of optimism and unity. The bright red background evokes passion and revolutionary zeal while contrasting with other vivid hues that highlight different elements within the composition. As one delves deeper into this artwork's historical context, it becomes evident that it was not merely an aesthetic creation but also served as propaganda for political agitation. It aimed to inspire citizens towards active participation in achieving societal goals such as becoming heroes of socialist labor or joining the shock work movement. Today, this print stands as both a testament to artistic skill and an important artifact in understanding Russia's history. Preserved in the collection of the Russian State Library in Moscow, it continues to captivate viewers with its powerful imagery and enduring message: Long live our happy socialist
