Jean-Michel Basquiat | The Radiant Child

Neuarmy — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 19:50:14 +0000

Intriguing trailer for the new documentary: Jean-Michel Basquiat | The Radiant Child.
Directed by Tamra Davis, the documentary features never-before seen footage of the prolific artist painting, talking about his art, and existing. I can’t wait to see this film, this footage was all shot just 2 years prior to his death in 1988 and was tucked away in a drawer for the last 20 years. Incredible.

General Projects is the working name of designer Ben Pieratt, the mind behind Svpply, The Egotist Network, Book Cover Archive, and more. Yes, I’ve featured him here a few times – what can I say, I dig his work.

Elysse Ricci

I was stoked today to discover the work of another great Philadelphia-based designer, Elysse Ricci. You may be familiar with Elysse’s work for Urban Outfitters, where she’s currently an in-house designer. I love her use of color and type, often combined with a subtle mix of elements made by hand, which gives her work a great personal quality.

Mike McQuade | MCQ

Neuarmy — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 18:31:46 +0000

One of my main cohorts, Mike McQuade, just launched his new site and it’s loaded with a grip of incredible new work. Originally from Philadelphia and currently working as an art director at Energy BBDO in Chicago, Mike considers himself an artist, designer, and illustrator. I’ve always admired his drawing skills and hand-lettering, and it’s great to see these talents crossing over into his advertising work for big brands. Mike and I formed National Record Holders a few years ago, and although we haven’t done much with it lately, we are currently working together on a poster for The Infantree’s Help Haiti Heal poster project, as well as plotting our next move with NRH. Stay tuned.

Some people just have it. New York City based art director, designer and illustrator Michael Freimuth is one of those people. His work seems effortless, his range is endless, and every approach he takes has a very considered purpose.

Nice mix of work from New York based graphic designer Joshua Covarrubias spanning identity, illustration, editorial, advertising and packaging. You’re probably most familiar with his Good Transparency work done at Kiss Me I’m Polish, but I also really enjoy his Operation Proofread 10 weeks 10 tips 10 posters project.
