Sooner or later, anyone interested in China will come across this infamous book. It stands out, not for its literary merits, but because the odds are stacked in its favour: over 1 billion copies were printed.
The collection of quotes by the "Great Chairman" Mao Tse-tung no longer enjoys such a vast readership, nor will you see anyone whip it from their pocket in a perfectly choreographed flourish, as custom once demanded. Instead, the "Little Red Book" has become just another artefact in a cosmos of consumer gimmicks depicting an unblemished portrait of the barbarous Mao: key-rings, fridge magnets, bobblehead dolls …
The dictator as King of Kitsch: this poster considers it all. At the very least an homage to the exceptional beauty of Chinese type: just this once, in red.
