Posters of the Far Eastern Republic" traveling exhibition

The exhibition "Posters of the Far Eastern Republic (DVR) from the collection of the N.I. Grodekov Khabarovsk Museum" presents works by Khabarovsk artists: Nikopolion Naumov, Viktor Palmov and others.

The value of the posters was in the brevity, integrity and artistic expressiveness of the graphic language. It was used to convey the content of the text with artistic images to the illiterate population, so the posters were created in the form of a national lubok.

In the early 1920s, they were printed at the printing house of the Military Political Department of the People's Revolutionary Army (VoENPRUR NRA) in Chita, the capital of the DVR.

These modern posters are a unique source for the history of the Far Eastern Republic, a de jure independent democratic state with a capitalist economy, which was located on the partially occupied by Japanese invaders and the White Army in the Far East and Transbaikalia in 1920-1922. De facto - a buffer pro-Soviet state.
