Philippe Druillet is a cartoonist and illustrator from Toulouse, France. He entered the art world as a regular contributor to the French comic, Pilote, in the late 1960’s and 1970’s, and eventually earned the nickname of “Space Architect” by creating massive backdrops featuring buildings inspired by ancient Indian temples and Gothic cathedrals.

Philippe’s work features gritty, dystopian themes filled with cyborgs, alien creatures, and elaborate depictions of war.

Upcycled Robot Sculptures by +Brauer

June 24th, 2014 | Robot

Brauer Upcycled Robots - Voltman and Commodor

Brauer Upcycled Robots - Olaf and Eliott

Brauer Upcycled Robots - Lucien and Horton

Bruno Lefevre-Brauer, known as +Brauer, is a graphic designer living in Paris. Over the past 20 years he has designed numerous album covers for French and international artists and pursued his personal artistic expression through painting, photography and sculpture.

The robots seen here are part of a side project in which he creates vintage-style robots from discarded industrial parts. The robot sculptures really come to life at night when the lights come on.

From the artist:

“The beauty of the materials and the venerable patinas express their beauty in the light of day, while at night, it is the turn of the strange, evocative light fittings to reveal their magic. Right from conception, the element of light is an integral part of the artwork: each robot is designed to interact with it’s environment in a different way whether it is turned on or off.”

It’s nice to see these abandoned pieces of machinery repurposed for a creative use. As a future step, I’d love to see these robots animated… maybe in a stop-motion context. It could make for an entertaining short movie.

Irving Penn - Small Trades

Today is the birthday of the American portrait photographer, Irving Penn. He would have been 97 years old, but unfortunately, the legend passed away back in 2009. Penn photographed a range of topics, but was mostly known for his still life and portrait work.

When discussing his predilection for animal skulls, he described them as “an exquisite edifice of living machine. Hard chambers of bone to guard soft organs, protected conduits and channels.

Penn mainly used minimalist backdrops, preferring the focus to lie on his subjects. In one series titled, “Small Trades,” he featured workers in uniform with their tools of the trade (seen above). The photo style was achieved by using high speed roll film, to get a particularly grainy effect.

Irving Penn was surely a master at his craft.
