The Society Of The Spectacle

One of my more recent discoveries is the excellent We Heart. Covering the usual bases of urban and chic culture, it has a great point of view consistently brings us interesting things to the table. On my surfing travels, I found this really beautiful illustrator from Germany; Jörn Kaspuhl. Combining elements of portraiture and pop art, his style is gorgeously detailed and super vibrant. With his work appearing in publications ranging from the New Yorker, GQ and Forbes to Monocle and Wired, there is a good chance you have seen his stuff about. Check out some more after the jump.

WOW. These illustrations by Steve McGhee are mind-blowing, shocking, surreal, stunningly rendered and clearly wear their influences on their sleeve. More wild imagineering after the jump. (more…)

Another blog, another project, another bit of lovely illustrated fun. Croatian illustrator Vanja Mrgan has taken popular culture icons and, well, put a beard on ‘em. And it makes me smile. More after the jump. (more…)

Love these beautiful illustrations from Lee Crutchley, imaginative and brilliantly funny. Check them all out here, but here’s a few of my faves… (more…)

Well Mad Men season 3 is in full swing, and the buzz (as i mentioned in a post last month) has never been greater. So it’s good news that the ratings have spiked for the show and the shows fan’s continue to help fill in the gaps of the Mad Men world, but also fill in some of the contextual gaps. This development in particular is of interest. (more…)

These are a bit mental, all done with ballpoint pen, and content on the more ’surreal’ side lets say. More after the jump (more…)

From Vice’s followfriday recommendation I would like to present the work of Dan Stafford, which is lovely and unlike anything I’ve seen in quite a while. Go see here.

I recently found these startling images from a recent Brighton Art College graduate – Joseph Wood. Theses are dynamic visual kaledescopes, that could be the front cover of a tripped out psych band from the sixties, or something from Alejandro Jodorowsky’s surrealist El Topo. Love it. More after the jump. (more…)

Awesome illustrations, topped off with an innovative and eerie website. Watch the sign…

Brazillian Guilherme Marconi is one incredible illustrator.
