Awesome Poster Silkscreen Stencil - Soviet Banksy 1974 - Anti-alcohol - Drunkard

Description: Welcome to Antique Poster ShopThe poster is one of the most lively and, at the same time, the most complex areas in graphic design, in art. The Soviet poster is a truly unique phenomenon, and in different years the authors of famous posters were outstanding Soviet artists, leading people of their time.The best artists of their time worked on propaganda posters, famous poets wrote slogans - thus, unique graphic schools were formed. Nowhere in the world did they teach the poster purposefully and systematically, as it was in the USSR.Rare Soviet posters today have to be searched for in different countries of the world. It's a paradox, but what was created in only a few copies and is known only to collectors is sometimes easier to find than what was produced in thousands of copies. Of the millions of campaign posters that have adorned the streets, classrooms, classrooms and hospital corridors for many decades, only a few have survived.Posters of the Soviet era are not only original works of graphic art, antiques and antique graphics, original retro gifts and interior items, but also truly historical documents.___________________________________________________________________________The poster is created using the technique of multi-color silk-screen printing, stencil type.An extremely rare type of poster creation since each copy is made by hand.The stencil is also made by hand.Such posters are produced in extremely small print runs_________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SLOGAN : Showing up to work drunk is grounds for dismissal!Type of printing : Silk-screen printingPublishing house : creative association "Agitplakat Dona"Year of creation : 1974SIZE – 22 / 14 INCHES OR 56 /36 CENTIMETERS THE PAINTER IS : Shutenko Rodion 1921BiographySoviet and Russian graphic artist, poster artist, caricaturist. Member of the Union of Artists of the USSR. Worked as a caricaturist in the satirical magazine "Krokodil" and in the creative association "Agitplakat Dona".Participant in the Great Patriotic War. Rodion Stepanovich served in the artillery regiment of the 315th rifle division. Commanding a howitzer battery, Rodion Shutenko fought the Nazis at Stalingrad, liberated Crimea. The division's soldiers not only fought for Stalingrad, but also liberated Shakhty and Novoshakhtinsk, fought on the Mius. Moreover: five brothers of Rodion Stepanovich fought on the front lines. And they all returned home alive!Now he paints pictures about the Great Patriotic War, including this decisive battle. A former artilleryman, the 97-year-old artist and poet considers his work about Stalingrad to be a valuable work - after all, on the burnt sheet there are signatures of Rostov residents who took part in the defense of Stalingrad. Many of them are no longer alive. Senior Lieutenant Rodion Shutenko returned to his home in his native village of Oblivskaya after being discharged into the reserve in 1946. And the following year he entered the Rostov Art School named after M. B. Grekov.Since childhood, I was sure: I will become an artist - or nobody! And since my last name is "joking", I was initially drawn to the genre of caricature. While still studying at the "Grekovka", I began to establish contacts with the incredibly popular humorous magazine "Crocodile" in the Soviet years, - said Rodion Stepanovich. At first, the Rostov resident sent themes for caricatures to the editorial office of "Crocodile". They responded kindly to him: "You lack humor," or "You failed to develop the plot." But the persistence of the young cartoonist gradually prevailed. Shutenko's themes began to be accepted for publication, although they were drawn by more experienced, full-time artists of "Krokodil." During the summer holidays, Rodion came to Moscow, rented a corner for the night somewhere not far from the editorial office, and came there every day as if to work. In the end, Rodion Shutenko became a freelance author of "Krokodil." They already paid for his travel from Rostov, and provided a hotel in Moscow. Once a week, so-called "dark" meetings were held, to which all the artists collaborating with "Krokodil" were invited, R. S. Shutenko continues his story.The freelancers brought their sketches and drafts, drawn anywhere, on pieces of paper or cardboard. The main thing was to explain their idea and show its vision on paper. If the theme was accepted, it was ordered from one of the staff artists of "Krokodil". These were famous masters of caricature, each with his own established style and style. "International" themes of Shutenko were most often sent to the creative team of Kukryniksy, other themes of the young artist usually went to another famous "Krokodil" - Yuli Abramovich Ganf, or a native of the Don Nakhichevan Leon Georgievich Gench.After graduating from the "Grekov" school, Rodion Shutenko received a teacher's diploma and was sent to work as a drawing teacher at a school for hearing-impaired children on Suvorov Street. But in 1962, the artist changed his teaching activity to professional activity as an artist. Even working as a teacher, I continued to draw, participated in exhibitions of the Union of Artists and did not break off contact with the magazine "Krokodil", where I went during the summer holidays. He achieved some success, and one day the young cartoonist was invited to his studio by Anatoly Mosin, an artist for the literary magazine Don and head of the graphics section at the Rostov branch of the Union of Artists of Russia. At 16 Turgenevskaya Street, Rostov graphic artists Viktor Dorokhov, Arsen Mardirosov and the Kondratyev brothers, who had also been invited by Mosin, were already sitting there.“Mosin announced to us his plan to create a creative association in Rostov called “Agitplakat Dona”. Such an association had recently been created in the capital. And the prototype was the famous “Windows of Satire ROSTA”, where Vladimir Mayakovsky published his propaganda works. We agreed, and thus in 1962 the artists’ association “Agitplakat Dona” was created in Rostov,” says Rodion Shutenko.Anatoly Mosin demonstrated good organizational skills, having agreed with the management of the Central Department Store that the first five posters would be displayed for all Rostovites to see in the shop windows on the Budyonnovsky Avenue side. The large, two-meter-high posters really did become the center of attraction for passersby. The artists decided to take satirical topical themes, since they are what people are interested in. Shutenko’s first work in the “Agitplakat Dona” was connected with agriculture: about low milk yields on collective farms. “We decided not to sign the posters with our names, but to designate them with numbers, which we pulled out of an old hat picked up in the printing shop. I got the fifth number, Dorokhov the third. Mosin himself took the first number, since he was the head of the association. We were worried about how the public would perceive our work and looked from the side at the windows of the Central Department Store, where the posters were displayed. There was always a crowd there people, so the success exceeded all expectations!..».This is how the creative association «Agitplakat Dona» appeared, which expanded its work. Thematic orders for poster series appeared: for Victory Day, the day of the formation of the USSR, anti-religious, anti-alcohol, against domestic crime and parasitism. R. S. Shutenko made posters on all these topics: «Do not read the letters of saints only lies and malice in them!», «Those who violate the law from our trade - out!», «And on his watch there is no time other than what is needed for lovers of alcohol..», «Workers of this kind - tarnish the honor of the entire plant», «Isn't it time to take a stricter approach to the lazy person, the parasite?!», «Always be uncompromising, brave, to the slackers, the lazy, the botchers!».While working at the Agitplakat Dona publishing house, Rodion Shutenko angrily castigated various vices of Soviet society, and created posters on topical issues of world politics during the Cold War. He made posters for the collection Ideological Sabotage against the USSR, and collaborated with the poet D. Dolinsky ("They repeat hostile voices in our ears, they crawl into our souls with vile slander...". Many of the artist's posters are dedicated to memorable dates in the country's history, the struggle for peace, and heroes of labor.
