Chinese Posters

In the themes section, a page with examples of what people are doing with our posters was added. We hope to hear your suggestions for this page! Other recently added theme pages are the Anti-American Boardgame and the May Thirtieth Movement (1925). The Gallery was enlarged to 200 posters. We added Chinese characters on many pages. And of course a lot of small corrections were made. |

Chineseposters.net is dedicated to the Chinese propaganda poster as it has been produced from 1925 till the present day. These posters literally cry out to be seen. We present them in a gallery of highlights, in web exhibitions ("To Read Too Many Books is Harmful"), and in themes. The site provides related images as well as additional information in artists' biographies, a bibliography and a growing selection of rare texts on Chinese art, propaganda and posters. This website is an initiative of Stefan R. Landsberger (Leiden University, University of Amsterdam) and the International Institute of Social History, Amsterdam. |
