In recent years, poster artists M. Sultanaliev ("Glory to the Motherland," 1982; "Kurpsay HPP — Under Construction!," 1982; "Glory to the Heroes of Kyrgyzstan," 1985), A. Asyamov ("Olympic Moscow," 1982; "Vitamins for Europe," 1983), A. Tsyganok ("American Boomerang," 1985; "Your Labor, My Labor — For the Party, For the Motherland," 1983), S. Tokoev ("My Labor — For You, Motherland," 1983), and N. Akmatov (in collaboration with B. Sartbaev, triptych "Mobilized and Called by the Revolution," 1984) have made significant contributions. These artists successfully develop political posters, widely utilizing the achievements of contemporary propaganda art in their work.
Currently, the culture of advertising and theater posters has noticeably risen, significantly aided by the annual competitions held by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic for the best theater poster. In advertising posters, A. Asyamov has made successful contributions ("Organ Music," 1980; "Violin Concerto," 1981), as well as "Ch. Aitmatov" (1982). In the field of theater posters, G. Selsky ("Boris Godunov," 1982) and F. Selskaya ("Petrushka," 1982) actively work, demonstrating sensitivity to the artistic side of the performance and fine craftsmanship. A number of expressive posters have been created by U. Omurov ("Boris Godunov," 1977; "Mother's Field," 1977), M. Sultanaliev ("White Steamer," 1982), V. Maximov ("Faust," 1984), V. Shepilov ("The Adventures of the Brave Soldier Schweik," 1984), D. Lysogorov ("Student Spring—1986"), and others.
