Socialist Realism For Sale on 1stDibs

You are likely to find exactly the socialist realism you’re looking for on 1stDibs, as there is a broad range for sale. In our selection of items, you can find contemporary examples as well as a Impressionist version. If you’re looking for a socialist realism from a specific time period, our collection is diverse and broad-ranging, and you’ll find at least one that dates back to the 19th Century while another version may have been produced as recently as the 21st Century. When looking for the right socialist realism for your space, you can search on 1stDibs by color — popular works were created in bold and neutral palettes with elements of gray, brown, black and white. There have been many interesting socialist realism examples over the years, but those made by Bijan Choudhury, Yue Minjun, Komar & Melamid, Piero Dorazio and Evgeni Chuikov are often thought to be among the most thought-provoking. Artworks like these of any era or style can make for thoughtful decor in any space, but a selection from our variety of those made in paint, oil paint and paper can add an especially memorable touch. A large socialist realism can prove too dominant for some spaces — a smaller socialist realism, measuring 3.55 high and 5.44 wide, may better suit your needs.

The price for a socialist realism in our collection starts at $66 and tops out at $53,000 with the average selling for $1,800.
