Michael Albert prints delivered!

Several weeks ago, I posted an image of a collage map of Manhattan created by collage artist Michael Albert which I instantly fell in love with.

Michael read the post and was so very kind to personally drop off several signed poster-sized prints of his work and I’m just showing 3 of the prints off to you right now. Shown below are his collage of the United States of America, the map of Manhattan, and an additional one called “Heart (The Red Studio)”.

Thank you Michael Albert for the great posters!

Map of Manhattan made out of letters from advertising and commercial products

This is Michael Albert’s map of Manhattan made entirely out of letters taken from advertisements and commercial products. The whole collage was completed in Fall 2008 and it measures a whopping 32″x40″. By using these letters, Michael Albert spells out the locations of places and districts in Manhattan. The artist says that there is a spelling mistake in the map and challenges people to look for it.

Check out a PDF of the map here. I would love a huge print of this to hang on my wall. :)
