Gino Boccasile


Gino Boccasile, born in Italy in 1901, created many works during the 1930s as advertising for products and travel destinations. As the 1930's came to an end, Boccasile went to work for the fascists creating some of the most startling images of propaganda which are highly sought after today. After the war, Boccasile set up his own agency.
His advertisings are often cheeky, and always beautiful and smooth. They certainly catch your attention.

Art, Art and more Art.


An entire blog dedicated to art. A giant collection of funny, disturbing, interesting or just beautiful stuff. Loads of different artists, all kinds of techniques, and links to the sites of the artists or the gallery that promotes them. Really cool work on there, many different categories, you can get lost in this for quite a while.

Erwin Olaf


One of amy favourite photographers: Erwin Olaf. His images are often smooth like advertisings, but with a twist. His Royal Blood series is just brilliant!
