Andre Brik is a Brazilian artist born in Curitiba in 1972. Architect, illustrator and art director, he also studied typography and graphic design at the School of Visual Arts and at Parsons School of Design in New York.
In the artist works, there is some of the 1920’s Plakatstil graphic style and polish posters with their clean lines and flat contrasting background colors, their visual puns and wit, and subtle irony. Andre artworks have also nonsense, humor, counterculture, dada, surrealism and punk rock.
The ideas are born from the observation of the elements of everyday objects. Then the artist begins a long process of sketching to deconstruct and recombine shapes, colors, and meanings. Finally, a careful selection of outcoming ideas is chosen to be digitally developed, painted and finished as a graphic art illustration.
