Inhalt:
In revolutionary and wartime societies, propaganda is considered a vital part of education and political participation. Propaganda encourages or condemns; reinforces existing attitudes and behaviour; promotes social membership within nation, class or work unit. Where political transformation had occurred before widespread modernization and literacy, art was the most effective way to communicate powerful messages. Drawing on the British museum's wide-ranging collections, this intriguing and thought-provoking illustrated catalogue provides a fascinating contextual survey of political art across Asia from 1900 to 1976, ending with the Cultural Revolution and Mao's death and the end of the Vietnam War. 0Exhibition: British Museum, London, UK (5.2013-)
