Also, this collection spans much more time than communist Vietnam? 1900-2020s? Weird take.

Yes it does cover more time, but did you look at what's available in non-communist time periods? Did you click through the site? Not much else is there.

It's not like communist art is so abundant in the word that it's so boring to have another collection of them.

Also a lot of these are stamps and explicit propaganda posters, right? Like what do people expect. Stamps are… I mean, it is cool when a nice picture is used but it isn’t high art right? Some flora or fauna is pretty standard postage stamp fare. And they are well drawn.

Propaganda posters, of course, lean into propagandistic tropes as a language. For propaganda posters they are pretty creative and well drawn. Better than a dozen pictures of Uncle Sam rolling up his sleeves.

This collection is dehumanizing, not my comment. There is much much more to Vietnamese design and art than what is shown here. There is also a modern design culture from the diaspora that is not reflected here. This is an overwhelmingly political body of work, dominated by state control. By definition it is not from individual creative expression. I completely stand by my original statement.

Put up or shut up.
