Description
Farmers 'Re-Educating' City Students Mao and the Cultural Revolution A rarely seen thin-paper poster, approx. 18x29 inches, vintage poster post 1979. Issued by Shanghai People's Fine Art. Th poster endorses the Red Guard movement and the 're-education' of urban college students by shipping them off to rural communes to rid them of their revisionist ideas. The Cultural Revolution which took place between circa 1966 and 1976 was a social/ political movement. Mao, Tse Tung, then Chairman of the ruling Communist Party started this movement to reinforce strict communist dogma. Capitalism and traditional Chinese culture were to be obliterated. Big-character posters were used to denounce people as opponents of the Revolution. Red Guards (pupils and students who swear loyalty to Mao and his Little Red Book) destroy anything that is branded 'old' and eliminate people considered 'rightists'. The posters also were part of the campaign to respond to particular issues as they arose locally or nationally. The Cultural Revolution plunges China into turmoil and internal strife; the country is in chaos, but the posters only show enthusiasm.
