Poster project [constructivism]

New project, about posters in russia, here's a little history to fill up some blog space:
Constructivism was an artistic and architectural movement that originated in Russia from 1919 onward which rejected the idea of autonomous art in favour of art as a practice directed towards social purposes. Constructivism as an active force lasted until around 1934, having a great deal of effect on developments in the art of the Weimar Republic and elsewhere, before being replaced by Socialist Realism. Its motifs have sporadically recurred in other art movements since.


if it's too hard to understand, which it is...  for me atleast, the art is supposed to target people? the message written pretty clear? plus it has to be in russian? anyways just check this shit out, i got a bunch i found on google images:


it's written in english as you can see, it should be in russian for it to feel 'authentic', so i will add some cyrillic to my final product, that's decided.
everyone probably saw this one coming, im sure a lot of my peers will have this up on their blog. I called it.
i think this image has to do with womens rights, again, i see the poster actually has the message written on it, along with a picture to further explain the message, with emotions being displayed on the faces of the characters, or, like above, a clenched fist to express anger? shit, i am a grade A genius.
cold war? viet cong? looks like a blackops poster to me. something to do with war, again, faces and writing at the bottom, by now, you can tell the colors that play a part in this artistic movement, red, black, and other faded colors that aren't primary colors.
i will be using that in my logo too, i concluded.
just a girl, with a long ass lanky arm, and it's in english... so doesnt look authentic. 
my favourite one so far, looks like it could have been done by someone in this classroom, i like the colors and different images used, i like the boxiness of the shapes used.
important in russian construcitivgbnfhnfgnmm
logo looks a little weird, but i get the concept, i like the sickle and hammer in the back, proves it's russian, aha
and stolichnaya is kickass vodka and smooth as fuck. bottle looks authentic too, unlike polar ice, skyy, and all those.






some more logos:
quit smoking, lololol
you can see the boxed up shapes and forms, curves, stars.. the color.. the russian lettering, it's a giveaway.
i found this tasteless.
