Richard Colman, I’m in love (with your art)

I would love to have a crush on Richard Colman, but it looks like he doesn’t care at all about his appearance (see this picture on his website). Anyway, I can’t deny I’m totally in love with his art, and I suspect I’m not the only one…

Richard Colman is an american artist born in 1976 who blends figurative imagery and geometry. He paints about sexuality, life and death and other disturbing themes… From the first moment, he fascinated me! Do you feel the same?

Brand’s brain-wash

Fortunately or unfortunately, the brands are part of our life and, even more, are set in our brain in an almost alarming way. We are able to identify more logos than featured works of art and to sing more jingles than songs that have sold thousands of albums around the world. Advertising is almost universal, timeless and, in some cases, when that advertising gets old, it becomes “art” (see Coca-Cola or Pepsi vintage posters).
Don’t you believe it? Well let’s do a test, how many brands can you  identify in the following pictures?
