Showing the Pietà by Michelangelo against a deep blue background and surrounded by neon orange text, the poster co-opts Western art imagery to criticize Western ideologies of capitalism and war, here directly and succinctly asserted as inextricably entwined. This particular design directs its protestations against the neoliberalism accelerating the Vietnam War, but the grief rings tragically true now. Fine. Not inspected outside frame.
