Criterion Cover for David Fincher’s “Fight Cub”
Well This Is Something You Don’t See Every Day of the Day: The front page of today’s Courier-Journal is entirely hand-drawn.
The artwork was produced by Turkish conceptual artist Serkan Özkaya, who has previously collaborated with four other newspapers on similar projects.
From the Courier-Journal:
Özkaya said his art is intended to make people “look at your experience in a new way.”
Courier-Journal publisher Arnold Garson said the project intrigued him because it can generate discussion, and because it points out how art is a valuable part of everyday life.
“It is about starting the thought process, which is what art is about,” Garson said. “It makes you stop and think.
“We are in the business of communication. This is just another way of doing that,” he added. “I hope it’s exciting, surprising to our readers.”
