Lengiz, Books in All Branches of Knowledge 1925.

This poster, created in 1925 by Aleksandr Rodchenko, is one of the most iconic works of Soviet Constructivist design. It was produced for Lengiz (Leningrad State Publishing House) to promote the availability of books “on all branches of knowledge.” The striking design features a photograph of Lilya Brik, a prominent cultural figure of the 1920s, shouting the word “Books” through a megaphone-shaped graphic. Rodchenko’s bold use of geometric shapes, photomontage, and vibrant colors emphasizes the energy and urgency of spreading knowledge to the masses. The poster perfectly captures the Constructivist vision of uniting art with social and political purpose.
