Meet Our Awesome Makin’ Neighbors Sonnenzimmer
by jesshanebury / news /
We stopped by the studio of fellow Chicago makers of awesome Sonnenzimmer. Duo Nick Butcher and Nadine Nakanishi merge typography, fine art, printmaking, and publication design. Their show Image as Object, Object as Image: Graphic Abstraction opens January 18 at MCAD Gallery in Minneapolis and will feature their art, designs, and prints.

This is what amateur art impostors look like. "We are carrying the history of poster design on our shoulders" What a pretentious thing to say. Their wishy-washy, flaccid, feminine prints are not the stuff to further the great past of poster design. Take a look at their prints and the crappy paintings on the walls....SO AWFUL. These people are fooling themselves. Their prints are weak. Heck, they don't even understand their prints! "The meaning isn't as important as that person willing to invest themselves into even formulating the thought, what am I seeing" (At this stage these two lost 'print impostors' have verbal diarrhoea) What a joke! "If someone can invest themselves in that feeling, then that's the meaning". These two do nothing for the progression of real Print/Poster Design and would be better suited working in a Burger joint with their airy-fairy theories on the visual arts. Get em off the site. I'm not a hater, I just know two lost souls masquerading as artists when I see it. That's not hate, that's realism. Their work is rubbish and forgettable. Wouldn't surprise me to see Threadless do a line of their rubbish on Tees. XOX
