This picture to me represents the joyfulness of life. This is one of my favorite pictures in my portfolio due to the subject matter. I also like the picture because it represents repetition of form(when you repeat a certain size, shape, or color) and in this case it would be the squares. Its really interesting to study how the Europeans depicted life, the babies were never small but always a certain size, i would say the artists really made the babies disproportionate which was common in all European art.
Sealed With a Simpson
Have you seen these Simpsons stamps? Just got wind of them via Design Observer. Seriously though, “Really, are these not among the best American stamps ever?“
The brilliant new stamps honoring America’s first family of animation — the Simpsons. Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie, each in a classic head shot against a little rectangular patch of electric color, projecting maximum psychic and visual power. There was no action, sound, plot or space to help them out, only color, line, scale and lots of personality.
Art Adds
500 taxi cabs in the Big Apple will be ditching the familiar garbage ad’s ie: strip-club and vodka advertisements featured on their rooftop billboards. Instead, work by artists such as Shirin Neshat, Alex Katz, and Yoko Ono will be lighting up the city. Props to Show Media, who are the owners of the ad space, and John Amato, Show’s part-owner and art fan.
art adds to the public’s vision.
Concrete Hermit x Tate Modern
In a move that demonstrates the Tate’s interest and commitment to breakthrough illustration, work by three Concrete Hermit artists (Anthony Burrill, Ian Stevenson and Andrew Rae) has been commissioned and will form part of the ‘Tate Modern Series’. Product launch and book signing is on Friday 31st July at the Tate Modern in London. To learn more about Concrethe Hermit you can read an interview we did with them a while ago here.
Jin Young Yu Glass Scupltures
Korean artist Jin Young Lu creates transparent sculptures with expressive masks that she partially covers with nicely patterned clothes, and the result is quite astonishing. Wonderful ghostly figures that stair right at you.
Worker’s Comp.
I work at Brooklyn warehouse when I’m home for the semester breaks – every morning me and mass of other men wait to be called for work. Every morning 6:30 am. You could even say it’s an example of institutionalization. I see this every morning.

Keep It Surreal we can talk about what we want, when we want, how we want. Bloggers keeping it real. Our purpose is to touch on topics from art, design and musiq to life and habitat. We try to give a shining light on all creatives, especially folks with aspirations of growing viral, as well as, already established folk in pop-culture. We’ll use this blog to explore a thing or two. Hopefully you’ll contribute.
