Hasta La Ideas

This summer, Core77 & Coroflot have partnered with Blurb, the online photo book publisher, to bring our readers the Coroflot Genius Gallery, a contest celebrating some of our members’ most inspired creative visual work. Each week, we’ll review and select eight new portfolios to feature, showcasing exceptional and original work chosen from their portfolios. Additionally, twice a month, two lucky featured members will be selected to produce their own printed book of work (a $200 value) via Blurb. Check out our first week’s selected entrants and our very first book winner, Jasmin Darnell, and congratulations to all of this week’s selections!

Jasmin Darnell (Wellington, New Zealand) – Jasmin brings fairytales and dreams to life with her heartbreakingly gorgeous portraits.

Glenn Jones (Auckland, New Zealand) – Glen is smarter than your average novelty T-shirt designer—his consistently clever work never fails to delight.

Pavel Karpushkin (Kiev, Ukraine) – This graphic designer who demonstrates his keen sense of image and text in posters and menus.

Pravin Gaikwad (Pune, India) – Pravin’s visually dazzling automobile designs really jump off the screen.

Raul Arbeloa (Madrid, Spain) – The aspiring concept and digital artist is equally comfortable creating lush landscapes and highly detailed renderings
