Best Art Ever (This Week) - 12.26.10 - ComicsAlliance | Comics culture, news, humor, commentary, and reviews. The proliferation of social media is an incredible boon for lovers of comic book art, design and illustration. Sites like Flickr, Tumblr, DeviantArt and other countless blogs and feeds bombard us with a ceaseless supply of artwork by professionals and fans that is variously excellent, clever, funny, innovative, and numerous degrees of awesome.

We make a regular practice at ComicsAlliance of spotlighting particular artists and/or specific bodies of work, but there’s just so much great work to see that we’ve initiated Best Art Ever (This Week), a weekly depository for just some of the virtually countless pieces of especially compelling artwork that we come across in our travels across the digital media landscape. Some of it’s new, some of it’s old, some of it’s created by working professionals, some of it’s created by talented fans, and some of it’s endearingly stupid.

All of it’s awesome. Batman and company by an artist whose name we can’t quite make out. Any help? Is this really a sculpture? ? Illusion 360 - The World's most amazing Art, Design, Technology and Video. So, you are wondering what is so special about this man’s face? It is a hyperrealist sculpture by Jamie Salmon, who uses materials such as silicone rubber, fibre glass, acrylic and human hair. Incredible detail! Also see: The Hyperrealist Sculptures of Ron Mueck Notes from the artist (from bio): I like to use the human form as a way of exploring the nature of what we consider to be “real” and how we react when our visual perceptions of this reality are challenged. In our modern society we have become obsessed with our outward appearance, and now with modern technology we are able to alter this in almost anyway we desire.

Ana_lee: Fashions of a Decade: the 1950s. 80 Extreme Advertisements That Will Challenge Your Mind. Inspiration An advertisement’s aim is to instantly attract the attention of viewers.

Some use humour to draw viewers’ attention, but there are other kinds of advertisements that go to extremes to present something different. As a follow up to our previous article 60 Humorous Advertisements That Will Tickle Your Bones, today we look at the opposite extreme to using humour in advertisements. Presenting another side to design, some of the advertisements shared in this article today may be a little visually disturbing or conceptually controversial. While some might find them somewhat perverse yet creatively brilliant, others might cringe and be disgusted or disapproving of their content or style. Warning: Viewers Discretion Is Advised! Image from: Squid 80 Controversial and Disturbing Print Ads Let’s look at these advertisements objectively with an open and analytical mind and appreciate the creativity that went into it.

More than daily inspiration. Posted on 29th December ‘10 Translators: Vanessa Michal Dziekan — иллюстратор, дизайнер персонажей, аниматор и режиссер польского происхождения. В настоящее время живет и работает в Варшаве. Его работы впечатляют и в тоже время выглядят устрашающе. Просмотрев его портфолио, можно заметить, что большая часть работ, это иллюстрации содержащие в себе жестокость и насилие.

Тем не менее, его стиль остаётся совершенно оригинальным, тревожащим и запоминающимся. Michal Dziekan — illustrator, character designer, animator and director of Polish origin. Comictutorial. 3D Paintings on Panes of Glass. Using multiple layers of clear glass, Canada based David Spriggs and Chinese born Xia Xiaowan, transform flat artwork into 3D sculptures. Viewers are treated to different shifting perspectives of the works based on where they stand in the art space.

Spriggs work revolves around powerful explosive imagery, often resembling storms, cosmic blasts or firework like explosions. Xiawan’s “spatial paintings,” which often feature distorted figures, are drawn individually using colored pencil on tinted glass. Only when these pieces are combined on their floor racks do the images create the whole hologram like effect.

Designers Spin Spidey-Worthy Webs From Packing Tape. Packing tape has gotten MacGyver out of many a jam, but he never managed to make an entire home out of the stuff. So he could probably learn something from Viennese/Croatian design collective For Use/Numen. The team uses nothing but packing tape to create huge, self-supporting cocoons that visitors could climb inside and explore. Installed three times in the past year, the next deployment will be next week from June 9–13 at DMY Berlin's International Design Fair, which is now in its 8th year. The installations, which look like the work of horrifyingly large arachnids, grew in scale and scope as the year progressed, first deployed inside a small Croatian gallery, then an abandoned attic during October’s Vienna Design Week. At the last installation inside Odeon, a former stock exchange building in Vienna, the group used nearly 117,000 feet and 100 pounds of tape.

Human Bones Used to Make Art. Francois Robert has created a series of powerful artworks made out of real human bones to remind people about the consequences of violence.
