There are a lot of retro-inspired posters, but Tommy Kane's work is one of the few that has an Asian flair to it.
Taking old-school pop cultural icons such as The Beatles and the Adam West Batman, Tommy Kane creates unique posters with a collage-like aesthetic. What I love most are their resemblance to 1950s style poster ads from Hong Kong; Kane has even incorporated Chinese seals at the bottom of his work. Tommy Kane's vibrant vintage pieces are a must-see for everyone.
