The 'Archist' Series Imagines Famous Artists as Architects
Federico Babina's latest series titled 'Archist' imagines an alternate reality in which buildings are designed by artists. Babina resurrects some of the greats -- Andy Warhol, Salvador Dali, Mark Rothko -- and applies their general artistic aesthetic to a brand new medium.
The end result is a fun guessing game of who designed what, whether it be a mod apartment complex, a savvy office space or a surrealist-style museum. One thing is for sure: the world would certainly be a much more vibrant and lively place if these creative minds had worked on major metropolises instead of blank canvasses and the like.
Overall, Babina's series offers a refreshing re-conceptualization of some of the most celebrated artists of our time. Those who appreciate art will most definitely enjoy browsing 'Archist.'
