Propaganda Poster Issued by the OZET Organization, Designed by Mark Epstein – Moscow, 1932
Ударники заводов и полей! в ряды озета, propaganda poster issued by the OZET organization. Moscow: "Emes", 1932. Russian. Design: Mark Epstein.
Propaganda poster issued by the OZET organization (Society for Settling Toiling Jews on the Land). The poster depicts workers and reads, "Udarniks from the factories and fields! To the lines of the OZET, for the struggle for international solidarity among workers" (Russian) ["Udarnik" is a Soviet concept describing highly productive workers].
The poster was designed by Mark Epstein (1897-1949), a graphic artist, painter, sculptor and stage designer, born in Bobruisk. He was educated in a 'cheder' and later studied at the Kiev School of Art. In 1918, he studied in the studio of Alexandra Ekster. In the same year, he participated in an exhibition of Jewish artists in Moscow and was one of the founders of the art section of Kultur Lige. Epstein continued to work in Kiev even after the establishment of the Soviet government and the communization of the Kultur Lige organizations, while his partners in the art section had chosen to leave the city. During the years 1923-1931, he managed the Jewish Arts and Trades School in Kiev (the renamed Art Section of Kultur Lige under communist management). At the same time, he worked as a stage and costume designer for theaters in Kiev and Kharkiv.
In 1932, after the Jewish Arts and Trades School shut down together with the remaining Kultur Lige organizations, he had to leave Kiev and moved to Moscow. During the years 1934-1935, he was sent by the OZET to visit the Jewish agricultural settlements in Crimea (his works from this period were displayed in an exhibition held in Moscow in 1936). In his last years, he did not participate in exhibitions.
