Ready for the #womensmarchnyc tomorrow? We designed these with a local. Based on Alexander Rodchenko’s Russian constructivism poster from 1924. We inserted the list of CDC banned words. We’ll be selling these soon, donating 50% of the proceeds to @risenresistnyc. Do what you can to defend basic human rights for women, people of color, immigrants, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities, religious and non religious and EVERYONE! Show the world the America you believe in. #screenprint #screenprinting #meshprints #powertotheprint #printlife #womensmarch #powertothepolls #daca #womensmarchdc #UNITEWITHLOVE #solidarity Reference facts: The woman in the original poster is Lilya Brik, who became a muse for the designer Alexander Rodchenko and the lover of poet Vladimir Mayakovsky, and she’s shouting the word “books.” It’s an advertisement for the publishing house Gosizdat. It’s all part of a loose group of artists, poets and writers that formed in the waning days of Tsarist Russia and, mostly met varying tragic ends under the Soviets. It’s become one of those images that’s instantly familiar the first time you see it. The original, designed by Rodchenko was a piece of Russian constructivism that is iconic but often used out of context. While Lilya is calling for people to read books, the advertisement is for the state sanctioned publishing house. We live in a world where censorship is still a real threat. Media bubbles and ideology separate us. The CDC being told by the White House to avoid using the words we have edited into the design point a dangerous form state controlled information. Taking away research funding for at risk groups. (at Mesh Print Studio)
