Bad Ads
works by Paul Friedrich, Adam Capps, Chris Norris, Marx Myth
Bad Ads” will feature art inspired by ads ranging from the turn of the
century to the 1960s. The idea is to pick a ridiculous, but realistic
sounding product (eg, Tom’s Mercury Ointment) and create a vintage ad for it,
recreating irony-free,exactly how it would have looked in a magazine
(Life, Saturday Evening Post) or Newspaper.
Curated by Paul Friedrich [db] and Adam Capps
