Description
The Poster Collective was a collective formed in 1971 at the Slade School of Art,  a group formed to initially produce posters in response to the miners strike and on the wars in both Vietnam and Ireland. It was formed on the basis of developing a coherent visual style, which addressed the political issues of the time. This included the armed struggles against colonialism in Africa, the struggle of women for equal rights and the continuing struggle against racism. The collective was active in the 70's and 80's, producing posters on a wide range of issues, including for educational purposes. The group was not-for-profit and used a variety of hand-printing techniques to create their posters. It's a red and yellow poster that says our state must evolve rapidly towards a state led by the organs of people's power. We are going to struggle for the unity of our nation under the leadership of the classes who were most exploited by colonialism, the peasants and the workers.Agostinho Neto
