Polish Movie Posters

While on Core-77 looking for something to blog about this post caught my attention. The colors really jumped off the screen and peaked my interest. The thing that i found most interesting was the fact that even though they were movie posters not one of them showed an actor or actress. This is very different from movie posters today because that pretty much all they feature, the main person in the film some cool effect to make it pop out and the movie title. But all these movies in Poland from the 1960s and 1970s just had vector images. Not one was a photo, all images were created. I didnt think that they had the technology to create and mass produce these images back then, now people mostly use illustrator to create   objects like this and it was  no where near as advanced then as it is now.
 

Snow Art

When many people think of art they think of the known and famous artists with big paintings and other important works of art, permanent and unchanging. When someone says snow, children think of a play thing and adults find it a nuisance. But people do not often think of the two words together.  Sonja Hinrichsen creates these massive snow drawing pieces by using snow shoes. 

"I’m generally not interested in creating lasting art pieces, as I believe that our world is over-saturated with man-made products," she says, "I like to unfold my work into large experiences, however I prefer work that lives on in its documentation only, 

and--hopefully--in the memories of my audiences."

This is a completely different take on the traditional way that people perceive art. She knows that her pieces wont last long but she still wants to make an impact on her audience.
