Home Appliances Resort


The opening of the Merkur's biggest shopping centre. So big, that we had to give him a name & created the story of a new tourist destination. The "aloha shirts" became the main character and a storyteller in one, as their patterns were actually the illustrations of the products sold in store individual departments. In this way the consumers easley identified themselves within the immense assortment.

Ms Rogge




In the contemporary art scene, Claudia Rogge is an exceptional person. This is not only because she travelled through Europe alone, in a glass lorry, but because she presented naked men on their knees, bent forward and neatly stacked, to amazed passers-by in Brussels, Paris or Munich. Mass made into shape and a compact installation transportable for Europe. Art is brought to people. They are confronted with it so that they can only choose between continuing their way or stopping. Many did stop and were eager to talk to the artist. Authorities appeared reasonable, forgot laws and rules and proved themselves curious and ready to talk.

John Lewis: From me to you

John Lewis has launched its national Christmas advertising campaign in what is set to be the most competitive Christmas shopping season for two decades.
The five week long John Lewis campaign, created by Lowe London, encompasses one 60” tv ad, two 40” and six 10” spots with a poignant but feel-good soundtrack of a re-recording of The Beatles track “From Me To You”. The track includes vocals from Matt Spinner, a member of the John Lewis music society who works in IT at John Lewis’s head office. The re-recorded re-arranged track – which can be listened to on You Tube - received the thumbs up from both the Lennon and McCartney estates.

The £5.6m campaign focuses on the idea of matching people and presents, and demonstrates that if someone has really put thought into choosing a gift the recipient will feel special and understood. The strapline is: “If you know the person, you’ll find the present”.

Overspray


Fueled by a combination of intense demand, sleepless nights and brutal competition, the four men at the center of L.A.’s airbrush art market–Charles E. White III, Peter Palombi, Dave Willardson and Peter Lloyd–embarked on careers encompassing work for Playboy, Levi’s, the Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart and major studio films including American Graffiti and Tron. Together, their work came to define the look of illustrative graphics for a generation of viewers. This book tells the story of these four artists for the first time through hundreds of images of the artists’ best and best-known work, unseen production roughs, documentary photographs and other ephemera. Viewed now, their surreal, funny and utterly slick imagery seems all the more fantastic–combining technical precision with wild flights of imagination that bring to mind the work of some of today’s top artists.

Louis Vuitton: Sean Connery


Connery is captured on a rough wooden landing on a beach near his home in the Bahamas, with a waterproof version of Louis Vuitton's classic Keepall travel bag. The tagline reads: 'There are journeys that turn into legends. Bahamas islands. 10:07'.

It is an impressive coup for the label, which consistently uses high-profile figures to front its campaigns.

'We are extremely proud that an actor of such immense stature should have agreed to participate in Louis Vuitton's Core Values campaign' said Antoine Arnault, Head of Communications at Louis Vuitton.
'This wonderful portrait, which captures all Sir Sean Connery's legendary allure, is bound to have a tremendous impact.'
