Mayakovsky V. V., Rodchenko A. M., 1923

This is one of the masterpieces of the era – The Dummies Poster. It was created by Alexander Rodchenko, a brilliant photographer and graphic designer. He is most famous for being one of the founders and apologists of constructivism – an avant-garde art and architecture movement, which denies art for art’s sake and proclaims manufacturing practicability as the basis for creation.

The text was written by Vladimir Mayakovsky – a talented Russian poet, who was one of the most notable representatives of early Futurism.

The Caption says:

Never ever better dummies one can hold Gonna suck them till I’m old.

I started with the Dummy’s poster to give me an idea on the Cartoon poster. I have gotten a lot of good feedback about how to change it for our purpose and would love to hear more thoughts.
