SuperHeroes would like to extend a huge thank you to all the artists who contributed to the Brooklyn Poster Project! Unfortunately, we were unable to grant every submission a back cover, but we still want to show them off! Check out the gallery.
In addition, we’ll be holding a short-term gallery showcasing a selection of works at Peninsula Gallery (352 Van Brunt St.) in Red Hook. The opening party for the gallery will take place on September 13th from 6PM onward, while the gallery will be open for regular viewing on September 14th from 10 AM to 6 PM. The opening party is free and open for all and we hope to see you there!
When we’re not giving away ad space in the Red Hook Star Revue, we’re busy saving the world from boring advertising. SuperHeroes is an international creative agency with offices in Amsterdam and New York. Over the past 8 years, we’ve built up an enviable reputation for creating innovative, smart and distinctive campaigns for brand partners such as LG, Converse, MTV, ASUS and Coca-Cola.
Maybe we had too many beers when we came up with this, maybe we just wanna see what kind of talent is out there. Who cares.
Nothing too official. The team in the SuperHeroes New York office will weigh in with their favourites. Final decision comes down to boss man and guy with checkbook, Rob Zuurbier. Send bribes and thinly veiled threats here: Rob@hellosuperheroes.com
Nope, sorry.
We’ll showcase every submission on this site and make sure to show you some love and link to your portfolio.
You made it; it’s all yours. We’re not trying to steal your shit. We just want to show it off.
If you would like to be considered for the August spot, submit by July 22nd. For the September spot, submit by August 22nd. The winning design from the first round will be printed on the back cover of the August edition of the Red Hook Star Revue, while the winning design from the second round will be printed on the back cover of the September issue.
The back cover of the paper measures 9.75″ by 15.5″, but we accept artwork of all sizes and it will not affect your chances.
Baffling, we agree.
