Part of the exhibition "Unity is Strength. An Art Exhibition on the Fight Against Covid-19" at the National Museum of China in Beijing.
A community for sharing and discussing art, aesthetics, and music relating to '80s, '90s, and '00s retro microgenres and also art in general now!
Some cool genres and aesthetics include:
If you are unsure if a piece of media is on theme for this community, you can make a post asking if it fits. Discussion posts are encouraged, and particularly interesting topics will get pinned periodically.
No links to a store page or advertising. Links to bandcamps, soundclouds, playlists, etc are fine.
Hot take: I'm actually not really a fan of socialist realism because it's boring and quasi-reactionary. Socialist realism was only codified as "the" art style of the USSR after the Soviet bureaucracy began to reel in the craziness of the post-Revolutionary period in terms of new cultural forms. Constructivism (heavily supported by the Bolsheviks) is far more interesting and boundary pushing than socialist realism, while still upholding and working well with socialist values. If all art was just socialist realism I would be so sad.
