Celebrate Famous Robots With A Snazzy Poster
This article is more than 2 years old
We here at GFR like robots. Especially the giant variety, but we’ve still got plenty of love for the smaller variety (plus the insurance rates on the giant ones are a nightmare). So, artist Daniel Nyari is a man after our own heart. Why? Because he’s created a new poster called “Famous Robots.” Check it out.
If you’re already thinking about where you’d hang one, good news: you can buy a print over at Daniel’s Society6 web store. Even better news? The design is also available on tote bags, hoodies, and t-shirts. Here’s Daniel’s official description of “Famous Robots”:
Popular Culture has given us a wide array of memorable characters that, over time have become distinctly iconic. This project highlights specifically those non human, non animal characters from TV, Video Games, Cinema, and Comics that give us every reason to feel nostalgic. Inspired by Robert Ball’s Goodies & Baddies Prints, I wanted to highlight robots whom I believed to be transcendental across the pop culture landscape including classic robots, modern robots and even some non-robots robots.
You can see a larger full version of Daniel’s poster over at his page, but we’ve also got it broken up into smaller parts below, along with listings of who each robot is. It’s kind of badass.
