NP Cultural Revolution posters

[Doug Millison]

I know a few of you share my interest in things Chinese. This site is worth
spending time with. From today's Scout Report:

Picturing Power: Posters of the Cultural Revolution [RealPlayer]
http://kaladarshan.arts.ohio-state.edu/exhib/poster/exhibintro.html

This fascinating site posted by the Huntington Archive at Ohio State
University features materials from a recent conference sponsored by
the University of Westminster's School of Fine Arts Gallery and
Indiana University's East Asian Studies Center focusing on posters
from the Cultural Revolution. The online gallery allows viewers to
examine representative posters of the era and features accompanying
notes of analysis and, in some cases, audio components featuring
snippets of culturally relevant songs or chanting as well as extended
audio recordings of some lectures and round table discussions from
the conference. The site also links to The University of
Westminster's Chinese Poster Collection, which features dozens of
posters from their 500 item collection spanning the period between
the late 1960s and the late 1980s. [DC]
