René Mederos, 1968
Better not to be, than not to be revolutionary
Publisher: Comisión de Orientación Revolucionaria
(Offset, 76x51 cm., inv.nr. BG E3/773)

In the orthodox socialist realist fashion, a slogan like this is illustrated with giant workers and heroic soldiers. Mederos chooses a purely typographic solution, where contrasts of black and white and differences in size are to enhance the meaning of the words. Upper case and lower case letters are mixed.
