Should that be Socialist Realism, perhaps?

216.158.7.57

Whatever. The official Communist Party sponsored school of art. Basically, the only allowable form for several decades.

Amazingly, some artists managed to remain artists even during that era. But mostly many stupid paintings of Lenin and Dzerzhinski in a long menacing coat, workers hammering steel, proletarians fighting capitalists... Trash... you didn't miss much.
