Socialist realistic paintings by famous artists: Trokhimenko, Brodsky, Wladimirow...

M.M.

Max Hayward in "Writers in Russia, 1917-78", 1983, p.63:
"The most widely acclaimed product of socialist realism on a contemporary theme was the pedestrian but uplifting novel by Nikolai Ostrovsky, How the Steel Was Tempered (1932-34)"

Jak się okazuje, źle zrozumiałam tego produkcyjniaka (i dopisek Macieja) - sorry! Sprawdziłam właśnie SJP:
produkcyjniak m III, D. -a, N. ~kiem; lm M. -i
pot. «powieść, utwór dramatyczny, film, w którym gloryfikuje się produkcję, przemysł itp., przedstawiając je jednocześnie w sposób szablonowy, charakterystyczny dla socrealizmu»

A więc i szablon, i gloryfikacja przemysłu.

Odpowiedź Piotra jest tu chyba najodpowiedniejsza.

It doesn't need to be socrealistic to belong to the above cathegory. Example: the foyer of a office building on Fifth Ave in Manhattan with hudge panel with factories, constructions, men with hammer etc. it is across from Credit Lionnaise Building. And secondly a sculpture was shown on a truck in Manhattan after the 9/11 disaster showing construction workers sitting on a beam and having a snack. I beleave, that was supposed to be the builders of the WTO.
Besides that what are the movies, that have their action in a corporation if not a "produkcyjniak" let's say in a faktory for making money?

'cause the question is about any item
therefore:
an item (product) of socialist realism
or - wider:
an item of totalitarian art/culture
product of totalitarian art and culture
