So here i made a "detournement" of Andy Warhol's campbell soup painting, and turned it in to a satirical illustration of the projected timeline of the financial crisis (imperialism, the highest stage of..). I called it "capitalist realism"

Because I'm terrible at my administrative duties :lol:

But yeah man, that looks boss... Cracked me up

Is that an illustrator job? It'd make a pretty sweet print

I should take more in vignettes

It seems that the general forms are the "sexy" ones. Good luck getting a discussion going on literature and film. I suppose it's the nature of the beast. Maybe enterprising people like you could use your deviantart accounts or whatever to funnel people here... I honestly have no idea.

At one point I tried building bridges with the communism group on DevArt, but their mods are useless and leave it more stagnant than our gfx forum :p
