Morbid Rainbow Art

Julian Gallasch Could Make a Funeral Look Cheerful

— April 22, 2010 — Art & Design
The artwork of Julian Gallasch is full of color and creativity. Although his artwork centers around more somber and morbid ideas, he chooses to stay away from a dark palette.

As his artwork is fearless, Julian Gallasch is also fearless. Not afraid of using color, Gallasch creates paintings that are bright and vivid like none I have ever seen before. You can view more of his crazy, beautiful artwork through the source links.

Implications - Consumers in modern society are no longer looking for pretty and demure art. Darker designs allows artists and viewers to differentiate themselves from others as well as explore a deeper and more realistic portrayal of the human nature. Artists should focus on creating more emotionally charged statement-making pieces in order to captivate audiences.
Trend Themes
1. Morbid Rainbow Art - Artists should explore fearless use of color to create statement-making pieces that highlight deeper, emotional aspects of human nature.
2. Bold and Fearless Art - Artists should focus on creating art that is not afraid to confront morbid themes, using vivid and bright colors to capture attention.
3. Emotionally Charged Art - Artists should create emotionally charged art that explores the darker, more realistic side of human nature, in order to create a deeper impact on viewers.
Industry Implications

2. Fashion and Apparel - Fashion designers should incorporate bold and daring designs into their lines to differentiate themselves from others, and capture the attention of audiences who are looking for unique and statement-making products.
3. Advertising and Marketing - Advertisers and marketers can use fearless, emotionally charged art in their campaigns to differentiate themselves and captivate the attention of audiences who are tired of traditional advertisements and marketing campaigns.
