Advertising that Changed the Nation

The agency I work for, Neiman Group, is underwriting a show for the Ad Council at The Art Institute of Philadelphia this Wednesday February 11th (through April 2nd). The exhibition is titled, “Advertising that Changed the Nation” and will showcase the Ad Council’s 65yr history of PSAs. 

I designed the graphic below to be printed as a 9′ x 9′ banner which will hang in the front window display of the Art Institute. There will also be a limited edition run of 16″ x 20″ posters available at the opening. Here is a link to more info about the show, if you’re in the area, stop by and check us out!

Art & Copy

Directed by Doug Pray (HYPE! SCRATCH), Art & Copy captures the creative energy and passion behind the iconic campaigns that have had a profound impact on American culture. ART & COPY reveals the stories behind and the personal odysseys of some of the most influential advertising visionaries of our time and their campaigns, including Lee Clow (Apple Computer 1984, and today’s iPod); Dan Wieden (“Just Do It”); Phyllis K. Robinson (who invented the “me generation” with Clairol); Hal Riney (who helped President Reagan get re-elected); and George Lois (who saved MTV and launched Tommy Hilfiger overnight).

Hornall Anderson

Really impressive work and online presence from Hornall Anderson. Featured here are some of the assets from their latest effort for the launch of Google’s G1. They also maintain a blog, which is unique in that it is timeline-based, horizontal format, and all flash (not to mention they just posted about Philly!)

Pepsi Max | Lonely Calorie

Obviously suicide is nothing to take lightly, so I’m not so sure how I feel about the concept/messaging in the new Pepsi Max: Lonely Calorie ads – but the execution is pretty stellar.
