Communist Colors


           

            During the Cultural Revolution there was one style of art that was popular and that agreed with chairman Mao’s thoughts and Ideas. This new Style included red and black colors to symbolize the communist party and many featured chairman Mao or other things associated with communism. This new style had to be introduced because all others works were destroyed that had to do with the old ways of life. Also the new style promoted the communists and made the people believe that the party was a good thing through propaganda posters and others works of art. Chairman Mao encouraged artists to write or draw in this style with also made it so popular.
