Satirical illustrations by Pawel Kuczynski

One thing that I really don’t like is when people use someone else’s work without giving credit.  Today I came across a few images which I really liked, but which were shared without any mention of the author.  It took me a few minutes to establish that what I saw were satirical illustrations by a famous Polish artists Pawel Kuczynski.

The fact that I don’t really enjoy this particular drawing style didn’t stop me from enjoying many of the ideas pictured.  There are takes on anything – society, war, technology, fashion, environment, and more.  Have a look at more of his work.  Below are a few of my favorites.
