A visual celebration of retro illustration and modernist graphic design reinvented by 45 international artists. Picnic recalls the traditional, more artisanal styles of iconic graphic designers such as Saul Bass and Friz Freleng and showcases a stunning presentation of artwork featuring silkscreen printing, hand lettering, collage, and typography with a contemporary twist.

This refreshing work recalls the golden age of graphic design in the 50s and 60s, while showcasing the work of a new generation of designers using hand-made and organic design techniques to create and inspire their illustration. Picnic on Tumblr.
