Soutinez De Postiers

£10.00

Issued during the fervent days of the May 1968 protests in Paris, this bold composition is a call of solidarity for postal workers striking amidst a nationwide outcry for social change. At its heart lies an emblematic appeal to “Soutenez la Grève des Postiers” (“Support the Strike of the Postal Workers”), encased within a ripple of fluid lines that evoke the dynamism of a collective movement. Its simplicity and clarity of design reflect the immediacy of its message, capturing the urgency of solidarity in a time of widespread upheaval and fervent activism.

The print emerged from the *Atelier Populaire* (Popular Workshop), a collective of students and workers who transformed Parisian art schools into sites of resistance, producing countless striking visuals in response to escalating protests against state authority, capitalism, and traditional societal norms. The ateliers were not mere studios but hubs of collaboration, where art intersected with politics, and visual expression became a weapon for demonstrators. The content captures the essence of that revolutionary moment, speaking to the intersection of art, labour, and collective action in an era that reshaped the cultural and political landscape of France.
