Gustavs Klucis, being a staunch supporter of the “production art”, in his poster art adhered to laconicism. However, this work is loaded with a mass of information – both visual and verbal. A locomotive with a huge red star moving towards the viewer is placed on a bright yellow background. A man on a camel looks disproportionately small (photo). The artist also placed charts with numbers of achievements and an expanded phrase-title. All this “content” requires time for the viewer to study, and the poster turns into a whole propaganda article.
