Affordable Art {am & pm edition}: Chad Hagen



The morning slipped by on me today and with it our a.m. edition of our affordable art pick, so this afternoon I bring you a pairing (to cover both the morning and afternoon editions) which I'm in love with. It's this week's 20x200 prints by Minneapolis-based designer Chad Hagen. Nonsensical Infographic No. 1 and Nonsensical Infographic No. 2 are inspired by the science of infographics. As Hagen explains, "Infographics' level of success is always based on how much and how well they communicate their data—the classic form follows function. In this series, I reversed these roles—form is king and dictates what the infographic communicates. Welcome to the world of fictional visual information."
