The tribune depicted in the photos, which symbolizes 'the Soviet revolutionary struggle against world capitalism', was crafted by the artists of IZORAM.
IZORAM (Mass Organization of Komsomol Amateurs Art) emerged in Leningrad in 1925 as the Association of Visual Arts Groups for Young Workers. Its purpose was to cultivate a new avant-garde language in amateur arts and crafts, as amateur artists had previously tended to imitate academic art. Worker's art groups, known as izoyadra, were overseen by professional artists to ensure the high quality of IZORAM's amateur productions. The leader of IZORAM in Leningrad was Moisei Brodsky (1896–1944), who initially studied at the Grekov Odessa Art School and began his career as a cubist artist. The association was dissolved in 1932 following the establishment of the Artists Union.
The organization contributed significantly to the design of tribunes for important events such as the October celebration and Labor Day rallies in Leningrad during 1931 and 1932.
The detailed description of this specific tribune, along with four images, was published in A. Ioffe's book 'Novyi stil'' (The New Style. 1932, pp. 136-151).
