Exhibition of (The Provence of) Niassa - Mozambique
1980
Silkscreen produced by The Director of National Publications and Propaganda. Niassa is a province in Mozambique that borders Tanzania to the North.
This poster was intended to highlight the fight against underdevelopment in that province. The Mozambican poster design and production of the 1970's and 80's is considered to be of the best quality of all Southern African countries. These bear a strong influence from international socialist symbolism. The poster tradition of Soviet Russia has played a pivotal role in shaping the graphic and typographic language of these posters. Historical events of the liberation struggle were often utilized.
