The Art of Boris Bucan

I thought I had seen the whole internet but I am so late to the majesty of Boris Bucan's posters. I really like his bold use of line, pattern, and color, and I think his compositions are still relevant to today's graphic design trends, though they were created decades ago.

Born in Zagreb, Croatia, Boris is also a talented painter and mixed media artist. He has had numerous exhibitions around the globe, and was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Croatian Designers Society in 2006. His work can be found in prestigious arts galleries and museums, including the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

Weirdly Charming

If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:

Teasin' Squeezin' Pleasin'

This is from the 1995 CMA Awards. I'm not a huge fan of country music and I wasn't a huge fan of that show…but I couldn't resist Shania Twain singing Any Man of Mine.
