Let's Send Millions Of Qualified Worker Cadres To The 518 New Factories And Production Units. 1931 56.25 x 41 inches. Condition B+:vertical and horizontal folds, creases in image. Two-sheets. Japan. An interesting piece of Communist propaganda, presenting the often forced employment of Russians in factories built in remote regions of the USSR as stemming from the people's sense of civic pride and duty. A brilliant example of Klutsis' skill in layout and photomontage, thisposter arranges different black and white photographs of happy Russianworkers in such a way as to look as though they are all part of a linesnaking through the image on their way to these 518 new factories in the distance. ref. Gustav Klutsis Retropektive by Gerd Hatje, Verlag, 1971 Plate no.230 Montage and Modern Life, M.I.T. Press, 1992 - a photo by Klutsis himself around 1932, showing a meeting of workmen in Moscow with this poster, among others, in the background.
