the motherland

i recently did my critical studies essay on socially, politically and culturally, powerful and changing graphic design. i decided to look at constructivism and its effects on the russian revolution. i wish i had this article then. alas, it is still an interesting read and has some amazing examples of early graphic design from the 1920's up until 1970. link to the article over on crestock after the jump. 


article here.

also, some links i found at the end of the article and from sifting through comments. a blog seeming to post a different soviet propaganda poster a day, here, and a russian site (in english too) cataloguing russian graphic design here.
