4 Dead Celebrities Font Art Pieces
59 Comments By Eran Abramson on October 5th, 2008 in Concepts and Designs
Dead Celebrities are always a fascinating subject to many, and this celebrity art created using actual fonts deserves praise.
These four posters of Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin, Marlon Brando and James Dean in some of their most famous poses is nothing short of spectacular. They provide another tribute to the dead actors (and actress) in a way we do not pass by often.
Besides small facial drawings, the entire figure of these celebrities is created using actual fonts. It may be used as adverting and presented as part of AdsoftheWorld, but Folha de S. Paulo newspaper in Brazil made this particula ad extremely attractive.
If art is not your thing, and you prefer tech, then the Celebrity Robots may be up your alley.
