Picasso & Superheroes

A graphic designer / photographer who enjoys short walks and James Bond movies. I want to help save the world from evil design. One time I saved a basket full of puppies from an exploding helicopter in super slow motion (but not really).

Guernica: 75 years

Nunca había visto el Guernica de Picasso de una manera tan completa como esta. Lo digo no solo por la recreación en 3D, ni por el pedazo de cuadro “extra” que Grey España generó para ilustrar la historia completa del terrible bombardeo (con Hitler y todo). Es por todo el recorrido visual e informativo, presentado por Muy Historia en torno al contexto en que sucedió el evento, y con motivo de su 75 aniversario.
Toda una clase de historia. Recomiendo…

To commemorate the anniversary of Guernica’s bombing, Grey created for “Muy Historia” magazine an interactive site telling the causes of the shelling in the Basque city. To do so, they tried to recreate the events and characters behind the scenes using the same technique as Picasso when immortalizing the catastrophe back then in its famous painting: “Guernica”. To do so, we carried out a comprehensive study of the technique and symbols used in the famous painting, and as from then, created in one canvas a new “Guernica”, including the facts that caused the shelling. The first thing was to draw the characters and scenarios to subsequently paint them and transform them into an animated 3D and therefore provide the user an interactive road through space of time, accompanied by audiovisual material and tests that delved into the events.

The website was visited for so many people, indeed the brand got many more value…
