Shards of brands, splashes of paint, children and soldiers waiting for the end of the world, cartoon characters, warlike angels, and paintings of animals - on the canvases of Anthony Micallef, they circle in a mad round dance.
The works of Briton Anthony Micallef are a real blast! And not at all because his art is very popular among the regulars of Sotheby's, and not because he is the owner of the second BP / Amoco Portrait Award of the London Museum of Portraiture Art and his works are not exhibited in the best venues in Britain, but because that he is a “terrorist artist”.
"Becoming animals" can be called a sermon, which was created in order to turn the thinking of bandits and perverts who are ready to commit a crime.
The works of Shaheed Anthony, as he is often called, are a real artistic provocation, oversaturated with both harsh urban anxiety and total anger.
This Anthony Micallef exhibition is like a step back in time, a journey into a Victorian madhouse.

Brand logos from brand logos: a project by Stefan Asafti
Are Pepsi and Coca-Cola so different in taste? Or, given the kind of war they are waging over the same niche in the market, is it all about the brand logo? While the closest competitors are running around to music around one chair, designer Stefan Asafti reflects on the fact that every Firefox has a share of the Internet Explorer, and that, remembering one, they will certainly remember the other
Eerie sculptures of hybrid animals. Metamorphosed Animals Project by Enrique Gomez De Molina
Inventing and reproducing new worlds that are inside ours, or even exist outside of time and space, artists and sculptors often inhabit them with outlandish creatures, the likes of which can only be seen in delirium, feverish dreams, or under the influence of potent "substances". Where they come from and where they go is unknown, but in modern art strange animals can be seen in the works of Jessica Jocelyn, Steve Bishop or today's hero of the publication, sc

I do not want to praise the work done or edited in Photoshop. All this seems so unnatural, artificial … But when designers and artists do not set a goal to fix something in photography, but simply want to show us their idea - I think Photoshop can only help
