80's Style Logos by SuperStupidBros

Posted: 24 Nov 2010 10:00 AM PST

It's not a mystery that for us here at Abduzeedo, the 80's are a huge deal. We love it and we will always be inspired by its shocking colors and metallic textures. 80's bands would be so proud of us.

While visiting Behance, I ran into the amazing work of a Design studio called SuperStupidBros. They made some really good looking, 80's style logos. These are very sweet, and if you share the love for the 80's with us, you'll enjoy these. For more of these, you may visit their portfolio. Cheers! ;)

Design History: Photo Manipulation Pioneer John Heartfield

Posted: 23 Nov 2010 07:47 PM PST

John Heartfield (1891-1968) was a pioneer in photo manipulation. Born Helmut Herzfeld, he changed his name as a protest against anti-English sentiment in Germany between the World Wars. Heartfield was one of the first artists to use photomontage, skillfully manipulating photographs to vicously satirize the brutality of the Nazi regime. This was decades before Photoshop, so he did them all by hand, making his artwork all the more impressive. His best known work is "Hurrah! The Butter is all gone!", showing a family attempting to eat various metal items, decrying how war takes food away from the people.His artwork stands as an example of Photoshopping before Photoshop, and continues to inspire people to resist oppression and violence.
