Brilliant. Artist Bruce Yan remixes the logos of famous brands by inserting the cartoon characters we grew up with. So the Playboy bunny becomes a profile view of Bugs Bunny, the mermaid in the Starbucks Logo becomes Ariel, Charlie Brown is the BIC guy and so on. The twists are super clever and fun.
You can actually see more of these logo remixes at Gallery1988 where Yan sells them as prints (sadly, a lot of them seem to be sold out). It would be great if the brands actually struck deals with the cartoons and did a whole series like this in real life. I’d buy a limited edition Little Mermaid Starbucks cup, eat at Bob’s Big Boy Burger for Astro boy and subscribe to Playboy. Wouldn’t you?
