Steal This Art
I stole these works of Art Chantry's off the Gig poster site linked above. There are over 200-some posters there for sale. Chantry is the bad-boy of design and one of the most prolific artists I know. He is a master manipulator of type and images sourced from various, cheesy old magazines, newspapers and other found bits and pieces of ephemera - a genre many others have tried to duplicate, but none nearly so gritty OR witty. And to think, he does most all of it with sharp blades and the magic of photocopiers. Precisely what all of you will be doing this week when Art so gracioulsly hosts a cut-and-paste workshop with us. So bring your best junk and sharpest blades and come prepared to play!
