The Society Of The Spectacle

After my Pokemon post earlier on in the week, here’s another illustration based project, this time raising money for Haiti. Artists, David Choe, Sam Flores, Estevan Oriol, Grotesk, Jeremy Fish, Patrick Martinez, Alex Pardee, Dora Drimalas, Munk One, N8 Van Dyke, Rene Alamanza, Morning Breath and Skinner Davis have created their own unique spin on the artwork for one of my favourite films of last year. Inglorious Basterds. There are some amazing creations here, with lots of diverse styles. Check out some faves after the jump. (more…)

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.

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…)

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…)

Brazillian Guilherme Marconi is one incredible illustrator.
