This exquisite new volume offers the first glimpse into the full body of Viktor Koretsky's poster artwork, with extensive reproductions from a private collection that is being made available here for the first time. Koretsky's propaganda posters were among the most innovative and celebrated works of propaganda artwork produced during the Soviet era. Strikingly dynamic and modern, they expressed a global, multicultural sensibility that will be hugely familiar to readers and viewers today.
