Thinking Outside the [Cardboard] Box (Berni Valenta)

8 June 2009 No Comment

Forget thinking outside the box – Berni Valenta makes art with the actual box. The Munich-based artist just closed an exhibit featuring 100 pieces of cardboard box art. It is such a shame that I just found out about it. I am always amazed when artists take everyday objects – and rather drab ones at that – and transform them into something spectacular. Check this out. You won’t be disappointed!

Valenta’s cardboard box pieces of art feature caricatures that range from monkey gangsters to nerdy sports fanatics. This man sure can pack a ton of personality into a very small [paper] package! To see more creations like these, head over to the full 100-piece ensemble at the Behance network.
