Obama Meets Lenin

This is a rework of a photo of a statue, "Meeting of Two Sculptures," by Leonid Sokov, currently on display in Moscow.  Done with CorelDRAW 11.  Principal tool used is PowerClip to remove unwanted portions of the original photo..

  • @ NemoPemo: This is a political cartoon for the welcome page of a website.  It depicts a down-to-earth Lenin contemplating Obama's business-as-usual "change."  The choice of font and the musical notes as well as the thinness of the figure are meant to suggest the insubstantiality of Obama-ism .  By way of contrast, the solid font representing Lenin's thought response to Obama-ism and the solidity of the figure are supposed to suggest Lenin's pragmatism.  The Cyrillic text, in the spirit of the cartoon and respecting Lenin's nationality, gives his response to Obama-ism as "Capitalist voodoo."

  • It is kinda lost on me because I am an english speaker. Could you translate?
