The Art of Barack Obama

One thing I love about the Internet is that it encourages and facilitates creativity because of the quick and easy way to create, publish and assimilate ideas. In the last weeks, there was one source of inspiration like few others: the presidential election in the United States. Especially the almost perfect campaign of Barack Obama, who convinced more than 60 million people to vote for him and therefore made history.

Many designers and artists helped him to achieve his goal by creating tons of images, wallpapers and posters, which spread like wildfire on the Web. And even though the whole hoopla verges on a personality cult, its richness and diversity is really impressive.

Here are just a few examples:
