Vladimir Vladimirovich (1893-1930) was a prominent figure in the Russian avant-garde movement during the early 20th century. Known for his diverse artistic talents, Mayakovsky made significant contributions to literature, theater, and visual arts. In 1920, Mayakovsky created powerful propaganda posters urging people to help voluntarily on the Polish Front. These striking images showcased his ability to capture attention and inspire action through art. One of his notable works from 1915 is "Chemin de fer (Roulette), " which exemplifies Mayakovsky's experimental approach to poetry. This poem explores themes of chance and fate while showcasing his unique writing style. Mayakovsky's involvement in theater is evident through his stage designs for the play "Mystery-Bouffe" in 1919. The Ark, a stage design he created for this production, reflects his innovative vision and ability to create immersive theatrical experiences. Additionally, Mayakovsky designed costumes for "Mystery-Bouffe, " further demonstrating his versatility as an artist. His costume designs added depth and visual impact to the characters portrayed on stage. Mayakovsky also contributed to ROSTA Windows, a series of propaganda posters produced by ROSTA (Russian Telegraph Agency). In Window No 42 from 1921, he depicted workers being rewarded with prizes and awards for their dedication and hard work towards fulfilling Soviet plans. Another ROSTA Window No 81 poster by Mayakovsky emphasized industrial productivity as weapons were manufactured in factories according to Soviet plans. He urged workers to repair ploughs and harrows promptly as they played a crucial role in agricultural development. Furthermore, Mayakovsky used ROSTA Windows No 81 poster as an opportunity to inform workers about new fronts opening up that required their participation. This call-to-action aimed at mobilizing individuals towards collective efforts for societal progress.
