Abstract

The article is devoted to the Soviet poster of the first five-year plan of Soviet Russia – 1917–1922. The poster in the period under consideration is one of the main genres of fine art, it is he who becomes the most responsive to current historical events and changes, and also accepts the actual challenges of the time. In this genre, an active search is being made for adequate forms of expression of current socio-political ideas and the introduction of the values of the new world under construction into the field of public consciousness. The article considers both the phenomena of poster art from 1917 to 1922 as a whole and presents an analysis of individual representatives of the poster of this time. The methodological basis of the study is the theory of fine arts by V. I. Zhukovsky and philosophical and art history analysis. The posters of A. P. Apsita “On the horse, proletarian!” (1918) and D. S. Moora “The enemy is at the gates! He brings slavery, hunger and death!” (1919). The study of posters demonstrates the specifics of the composition of actual images of this period and the originality of the artistic ideas of these works
