Modern History Poster

(1/3) > >>

Skelodwarf:
For my modern history class I need to do an art project that is related to the time between 1910 and 1990. I decided that I wanted to just do a general poster that incorperates all the main symbols of what happened in this time. I haven't even managed to start this project yet and it MIGHT be due... tommorow. So I come here now asking from the bottom of my procrastinating heart, that you might help me think up some symbols to include.

Here is a list of things I have thought up:

Swastika (This is kinda a given, That century was changed drastically by what the Nazis did, and everything that happened ties into it.)

Feminism-Posters (Y'know those "Yes We Can" posters? Not the Obama ones? The Women with the handkerchiefs holding wrenches and such? That's another big part of the american history part.)

Random Ads (Things like car's and such)

Inventions (Stuff that was wrought by the 20th Century)

(Something to do with Gandhi, I dunno what, but something.)

Hiroshima+Nagasaki (Another kinda necessity, along with all of the Manhattan Project.)

Any and all help is appreciated, linking to examples is even better, but not necessary.

Thanks in advance!

Strife26:
A picture of Joe Mcarthy or a floodgate could work too.

Be sure to have a good mushroom cloud.

The cover of grapes of wrath?

Soviet and American flags?
The cover of the Miracle movie (we beat the sovs!)

A Model T
The wright flyer

A tank?

Oil Barrels?

Repeating rifle?
Iron Curtain!
Berlin wall!

Dasleah:
I've always thought that this was a great document of the past 100 years or so from a science perspective. So I say do that, but with history. Like, "LET'S SAY YOU'VE GONE BACK IN TIME. Don't worry, we've got you covered. Here's what's just around the corner."

Skelodwarf:
Oh yeah, also: ANYTHING that happened is fair game.

China, Russia, Germany, America, Norway, Austrailia, Cambodia, Valhalla, Spain.

And thanks for the quick reply, those are all great.

Don't forget NASA and the space program
