Description
Poster, "International Day Against Fascism", produced by the Chilean Anti-Fascist Committee and El Salvador Solidarity Campaign, 1981
The poster has a black background, with three images in boxes representing elements of fascist rule. In the topmost box, five men are behind bars, representing political prisoners, with a rifle muzzel being pointed at them, with a drawing of Pinochet to the right. The botto image shows a military figure at he top of a wall holding a rope formed into a noose, with three men being led to the wall by soldiers. The third image sits to the right of the others, at an angle so that it is covering a small section of them. This image shows a hand in chains and bleeding as it attempts to grasp at the air, seemingly in pain. Above and below is information on the demonstration organised for the 13 September 1981, and a following Soldiarity Evening.
