Retro Print: The Great Outdoors

cam087705This photograph is amazing due to the artifice involved. The photographer combines an Avon cologne bottle of a truck and camper and combines it with a paint by numbers painting as backdrop to form a vignette of classic Americana. The photographer combines two kitschy items from America’s not-so-distant past to make up this picture. Paint by number kits (which are still available) are noted more for the mild amount of enjoyment they give the painter; they are not famous for the art that is the result. Avon’s series of cologne bottles were avidly collected by Avon customers in the 1970s and then, after the cologne was gone, placed on shelves all over America as decorative objects. In hindsight, they were pretty awful, but perhaps what was worse was that we collected them and decorated our homes with them. This object combines the two into a splendid display of artifice. The photograph depicts a scene that could be real, could happen, and has happened countless times in our parks and campgrounds; but the photographer uses models that, through their sheer artificial nature, reveal how false the “camping experience” really is.

You could say the quote on this pin is “Cynically Proven.” It’s cute and funny, even though it’s pessimistic. It’s great for your purse, jacket, or anywhere you like. Check out other great stuff from beanforest.

Robot & Triceratops t-shirt

Robot and Triceratops

This geek-chic shirt in baby blue sports an engaging motif: a bright blue robot astride a sepia-colored dinosaur. The bold retro-style print immediately evokes science fiction B-pictures of the ’50s, with their sensational battles and promises of heretofore undreamed-of excitement. But it also brings to mind those children’s games where toys from wildly different contexts interact together for no readily apparent reason, creating surreal juxtapositions of genre and scale. Tiny spacemen action figures do battle with enormous 11-inch tall fashion dolls or gargantuan pastel teddy-bears, the doll-house is requisitioned by a detachment of minuscule plastic army men, and the clockwork robot rides out on his loyal triceratops mount. Great stuff from happyfamily.
