Eric Tan

I was researching retro adverts of the 50s and 60s due to their view of the future at that time, compared to ours now. The view they had back then was one of excitement and wonder at new technologies, whereas now we have a much more negative view and tend to be more sceptical of new technologies.

Whilst researching this I discovered the work of Eric Tan. He has made many retro-style posters for movies, mainly Pixar ones. My favourites are these on he has done for Wall-E, as they really do give off the whole 1950s-future-vibe.





He has also created posters for other movies:





I really love his stylised drawings and the whole retro-futurism feel of his work.
