Description

Exploring the importance of large gatherings of people and its correlative, the mass medium of poster art, in politics and art between World War I and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, this book examines the artistic consequences of the triumph of popular sovereignty as a political ideal, years after the French Revolution.
