The latest issue of The Creator Studio centres on the artistic movement spearheaded by Andy Warhol which managed to transfer the main characteristics of consumer society (popularity, inexpensiveness, gimmickry and mass-production) to art itself. Culture and art became technological, consumerist items that were based on everyday objects. Art eschewed the one-off creation and became mass-produced.

In collaboration with nineteen new artists, The Creator Studio has compiled a set of works that express and analyse the main trends within Pop Art. Klaus Haapaniemi's "Bold Patterns" remind us of the maximalist sequential wallpaper designs in many sitting rooms of the 1960s. The most representative techniques of pop art are also recalled, e.g. collage and photomontage, present in the works of Diego Vargas and Marcos López.

This new issue includes examples of serial artworks that were both commonplace yet gimmicky, popular and mass-consumed, and is printed on Creator Star paper to further enhance the colour and brightness of the images.

Please consult our website www.creator.info for the flash version and selected pieces: "Freedom" contributed by Jean-Luc Moerman, "Factory Glamour" by Australian design collective Rinzen and the 8 works in the central "45rpm" section of the publication.

The Creator Studio is published in three languages with a print run of over 30,700 copies, and is distributed worldwide among clients and designers. The project is led by Torraspapel, part of the Lecta Group, to create an international communications platform wherein to publish works by authors from all over the world and highlight the qualities of Creator as a support for the printed message.
