Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Iconic 2010 Campaign Isn't Clowning Around

— March 2, 2010 — Fashion
When it comes to art direction, the weirder the better. The Iconic 2010 campaign combines circus-ready makeup with clothing that would be right at home in Blade Runner or Total Recall.

Conceived by Adriana Gerasimova, the Iconic 2010 campaign pushes the boundaries in makeup, hair and photography -- it's triple threat! I vote this artist gets drafted for the next Tim Burton film.

Implications - Boundary-pushing photography not only draws the attention of viewers and art appreciators, but also creates a popular pattern for photographers and art directors who wish to capitalize on this pattern by pushing even further to unimaginable heights. In particular, campaigns that reinterpret iconic moments in pop culture are usually captivating as a result of their relevance. Shock and familiarity are two elements in any artform that result in increased attention, publicity, viewership and subsequent consumption.
Trend Themes
1. Boundary-pushing Photography - The trend of boundary-pushing photography opens up opportunities for photographers and art directors to showcase their creativity and captivate viewers with unique and unconventional visuals.
2. Reinterpreting Pop Culture - The trend of reinterpreting iconic moments in pop culture creates captivating campaigns that combine shock and familiarity, attracting increased attention, publicity, and consumption.
3. Weird Art Direction - The trend of embracing weird art direction allows for the creation of eye-catching visuals that stand out and capture the imagination, providing disruptive innovation opportunities for designers and artists.
Industry Implications
