This poster design inspires you to learn about design history. There are a lot of interesting artists and art movements. The past is a rich design resource that can have a positive influence on your designs.

It is a poster design inspired by an art movement called Russian Constructivism. I cut up some images and paste them together to create a stylized revolutionary design and then tied it all together by overlaying some texture to give it a vintage feel.

Not trying to single out this poor soul specifically, but tonight I ran across her blog entry. She took her inspiration for her 'Russian Constructivism' project from this original Lenin propaganda poster.

Kids think it's cool. This is why we are where we are.

Actually, I don’t know if this is a girl or a guy. I self-edit my “her” to a “they.”

I couldn’t tell ya. I wish I’d studied Russian in high school back in the 80’s, instead of French.

The Obama adoration is getting totally out of hand.

Miss you on Sunday nights!

I took a couple years of German in high school.

I've forgotten most of it though.

It's browser dependent, but you can usually go to a Cyrillic website and cut and paste, or just insert the html code for a Unicode character directly. Here's a good reference.

Blame St. Cyril. My personal suspicion is that the guy was dyslexic.

I wonder if our artiste has considered the irony of B-17's in a Russian revolutionary poster...
