First it was the awesome Monster Inked exhibition, and now this. The 2009 Pictopia Festival is upon us -- bring it on!
For those not familiar with the unique Pictopia Festival, I'll briefly explain it is an art show centered around character design. It showcases artists' work from all over the world, which are exhibited in more than 30 galleries. This year it took place in Berlin.
Implications - The festival is a great place for advertisers and marketers to gain inspiration and connect with new and emerging artists. The works that are showcased include statues, stuffed animals, paintings and digital work. The Pictopia Festival would definitely be an amazing event to go to, even if you're not looking for inspiration.
