Description:
Here I wanted to prefer to socialist realistic compositions depicting beautiful, strong, young workers on their way to work. My painting is ironic. An old, shabby, ugly and unpleasant man represents the fresh force. On his sleeve he has the symbols of two youth associations of the Stalinist times - The Association of Polish Youth and The Common Organization Service for Poland. The first was a tool for indoctrination of youth and educating them to become the party's resources. The other was about instant professional training, physical education and military training of youth.
