Description

Brightly coloured prints, portraying model behaviour or a better future have been a ubiquitous element of Chinese political culture from Imperial times to the present. This lavishly illustrated study traces the development of the style and content of the Chinese propaganda poster in the decade of reform from its traditional origins to its use as a tool for political and economic purposes.
