As you know, planes come first, and girls come later. However, if we are talking about dogs, then it is possible at the same time. Such an unusual series of hybrids "airplane dogs" was presented to the audience by the production studio Ink.

It is taught to understand the directions and movements of contemporary art first at school, then at lectures in specialized universities, but nevertheless, a person receives the bulk of the relevant knowledge through self-education. To keep these cultural studies from being standard and monotonous, Moroccan-born graphic designer Outmane Amahou has developed his own guide to the world of contemporary art. The art project is presented in the form of a series of minimalistic posters, and has an unpretentious name
Some hope for God, while others try not to make a mistake themselves. Others, according to a 2005 Gallup poll, are 30% in the United States. For some of them, the place of God is taken by guns and pistols: in guns we trust (we believe in barrels). What do insects have to do with the problem of weapons, what a new species of Arizona cactus looks like, and what little children need to buy, American cartoonists know
Dog food advertising reminds that excess weight is the lot not only of people, but also of their smaller brothers. The heavy belly pulls the animals to the ground, so they are already reluctant to chase cats, and they are too lazy to communicate with other dogs, and they cannot jump from their feet for a plate. Creative advertising of light food urges not to allow a playful dog's soul to acquire unnecessary ballast, and a cheerful and lively animal turns into a flabby animal
Despite the fact that board games are no longer very fashionable, some still play chess, checkers, cards, dominoes. And even if there are simulators of these games on computers, nothing can replace "communication" with them
No matter how many iPhone fans and Apple fans say that there are no gadgets better than those that belong to this company, there will still be those who will argue that there is nothing more useless than these "toys". Probably, the position of the latter is shared by Nico Ordozgoiti, the art director of a Spanish advertising and design studio. At least the series of prints he created as wallpapers specifically for the iPhone testifies to this
Usually, banknotes depict the main symbolic phenomena for the country that issues them - the greatest politicians, writers, artists, public figures, scientists, scientific discoveries, architectural masterpieces, sports achievements, etc. Here is to tell on banknotes about what is now exciting the planet, and offered authors from all over the world the newspaper The Guardian

Not so long ago, readers of the site Kulturologiya.Ru were pleased to consider an unusual project by Federico Mauro, in which glasses of celebrities were presented.

Today we will talk about another funny project called "Famous Guitars", now we have the opportunity to guess which of the musicians kept in the p
Everyone had situations when they wanted, as in "Marriage", to jump out the window and make their legs. The original ad discourages such a decision, as it is much more convenient to get away from the source of stress and troubles on a bike! The posters, executed in different styles, tell the story of three characters who can only be saved by a small cycling miracle
Was secondary education ridiculously pre-reformed? Children are raised by TV and the Internet? Do you want to talk about it?

"According to rzelulattas, Ilsseovadny odongo unligysokgo unviertiseta, no zanchnei, in the cookbooks there are bkuvs in solva …" words are messed up. However, few of us think about the fact that some people have problems learning to read. This specific condition is called dyslexia
Despite the fact that Belo Horizonte is one of the largest and richest Brazilian cities, a large percentage of its population still remains below the poverty line. The advertising agency "Perfil252" recently presented a series of photographs in which you can see the indigenous people and their modest dwellings
As much as idealists dream of universal equality and brotherhood, the contrast between the standard of living of the poor and the rich remains striking. Mexican bank Banamex has launched a social advertising project "Erase the Difference", in which photographer Oscar Ruiz took several aerial photographs. The difference between the "worlds" is visible to the naked eye
The influence of life on art, as well as the influence of art on life, are indisputable facts that exist in close interconnection. And, at times, this interaction takes on very interesting and unusual forms. An example of this is the release of a limited anniversary batch of Campbell soup, the appearance of the cans of which is based on the work of the patriarch of pop art Andy Warhol, namely, on his series of paintings "32 Campbell's soup cans"
The English word "cookbook" meaning "cookbook" can be translated piece by piece and read as "a book that can be cooked." Such a book called Real Cookbook was created by the German studio Korefe. You can really cook and eat it
What is common for a Japanese, for a European is a coveted oriental exotic, an object of admiration, and sometimes even worship. So, we all know that many men are simply driven to ecstasy by the school uniform of Japanese girls, and many "oriental-turned" fans, young and old, are read into Japanese manga comics. Especially for such fans of Japanese cuisine and comics, Japanese designer and artist Mika Tsutai has brought to life the special, painted art tableware Manga Plates
"Dad, what is multitasking?" - "Now the printer will print out - I will show you." The non-standard vitamin ad showcases equally multi-tasking tools and makes the viewer smile. The racket brush, the grill rake and the like seem to do twice the good. Like the bright pills from the vitamin ad
What do we see - the next advertising posters "Windows, Doors, Balconies"? "We see rock and roll," say the authors of creative posters and fail the test for adequacy. Brazilian advertising posters simply play up the names of famous rock bands: The Doors, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Queen, Whitesnake, Rush and Pink Floyd's The Wall
In order to achieve success, it is not necessary to create original posters - you can modify existing ones. An ad for a fast food restaurant does just that, believing that a reference to another successful campaign will make a profit for the establishment. Ironic posters "motivate" to develop, improve, change. The heroes of the restaurant's advertising also, they say, change a lot, getting into the shawarma
British ceramic artist Rebecca Wilson could be considered the heir to the sculptors of yesteryear who created ceramic dogs and cats, women in hats and fluffy dresses, and little plump cupids that adorned our grandmothers' sideboards and TV cabinets. If not for the fact that her ceramic art is much more useful than if it were just jewelry: the ceramic sculptures of the young artist are both chandeliers and bottles for
The principle of the iceberg is that the largest and most interesting part of something is hidden under water or gone into subtext. The creative advertising of the exhibition, where it was possible to see mesmerizing sculptures made of ice, is built on the same principle. What we see is just the tip of the iceberg. What it was worth visiting an exhibition of ice sculpture for is left behind the scenes
The social campaign against drunk driving illustrates a simple idea: alcohol turns road signs into reminders that a person is a freedom-loving creature, and no rules can tell him. Including the Rules of the road. Only time sobering everyone and everything will be able to return the signs to their usual appearance
Who wouldn't want to sleep and dream like the characters in hilarious posters? But the insidious mosquitoes do not sleep. They stick their proboscis not only into our body - vile insects encroach on an alternative reality - dreams, and they burst like soap bubbles. The creatives who developed posters for a funny advertisement for mosquito repellents calculated everything: the promoted product, according to their version, protects not the perishable flesh, but almost the immortal soul

Clouds, clouds, the colors of a white dream … Especially on a fine autumn day, when it is sunny and calm outside.

Advertising now and then tries to convince us that what is natural is not harmful. A simple and memorable biofuel campaign is literally a green advertisement: animals of ecologically impeccable color symbolize nature, and a car on an unusual track hints at a fuel theme
Unusual types of contemporary art are now in vogue, respectively, arouse interest and those devices that are designed to maximally facilitate the "fate" of contemporary artists. Which, of course, sounds very funny in itself, but it looks quite impressive. Recall, for example, an electronic artist called Electronic Instant Camera, which makes portraits-photographs, similar to pictures of old-old cameras. Or, here's a new invention of the Time Print Machine from the designer
Each person notes in the work that which is close to him. A depressing textbook example is the gender reading of War and Peace. The original marker ads try to simulate how different people see the artistic world of Don Quixote, Moby Dick and The Little Prince. And even though we know that in fact, the perception of the text is much more complicated, but the idea itself is very funny
"Tell me what you are reading - and I will tell you who you are," - this alteration of a well-known aphorism has no less rights to exist than the original. Turning the pages of our favorite novels and stories, we get used to the souls of the heroes, and understanding evokes identification - without this there is no Great Book and Great Reader. This phenomenon, well known to the owners of libraries and bookstores, has become the basis for a wonderful book advertisement from Lithuania both in design and execution
The refrigerator is a closed system, so the exchange of smells is especially intense here. And the cheesy spirit will not only stop the fox at a gallop, but also bring the surrounding berries to a swoon. Food containers will help solve the problem. From now on, no more dubious neighborhood: funny posters teach owners to separate grains from chaff, cutlets from flies, and strawberries from cheese
If you place everything you need to make the sauce on a horizontal surface and take a picture from above, you see something interesting. In the original ad, it's not only the color differentiation of food and utensils that works - a tomato, a mushroom, a piece of cheese and (suddenly) a cow with a whisk from a mixer instead of a tail grow from cans of sauce (it symbolizes the creamy taste of the product)
To avoid nightmares after dinner, some posters suggest giving up meat, while others calling on chemistry for help. Foreign advertising of a medicine against heaviness in the stomach calls to go out on the warpath and bomb the meat with pills. It will not be difficult, because you will have to shoot with a slingshot, just like in the famous game "Angry Birds"
