A refreshing style for mural art by El Mac and Retna. Go view their work here and be impressed. I particularly enjoy their use of spray can technique seen in the lower images.

D&AD Student Awards 2011
For the first time this year, D&AD announced the winners of its Student Awards alongside the professionals. See a round-up of the highlights on the Creative Review site
This year's Illustration brief, from Diesel, was "to create an illustrated interpretation of a musical track that is experienced by the viewer in an unconventional and pioneering way". Helena Bradbury of Kingston took a 1st with her idea to package Movie Star by Roisin Murphy with a life-size chocolate leg which, she says, visualises the idea of a movie star being a commodity consumed by the masses.

The Art of the Factory
For his new project, Err, artist Jeremy Hutchison contacted various factories around the world, and asked if one of their workers would produce an 'incorrect' version of the product they make every day: in doing so, the functional objects became artworks.
"I asked them to make me one of their products, but to make it with an error," Hutchison explains. "I specified that this error should render the object dysfunctional. And rather than my choosing the error, I wanted the factory worker who made it to choose what error to make. Whatever this worker chose to do, I would accept and pay for."
Many thanks to Creative Review for this article, it's so worth a perusal
