If you have ever seen old American advertisements, you will remember how interesting they looked. But what if they were to receive an update? The kind of that screams "new and different, " because that is exactly what artist David Redon did--a refreshing take on some old ideas.

Entitled Ads Libitum, French designer David Redon artfully recreates a series of retro posters that are a little taste of Americana. Using modern technology he uses propaganda posters and classic ads and gives them a new life, injecting them with modern pop icons, including Beyonce, Lana Del Rey and Pharrell, that are as timeless as the originals.

"I like the shift between vintage and modern pop culture, because these days the border between art and commercial is very small, and artists work their images like brands do," explains Redon. "I started working on this project last summer, but it started to buzz maybe two months ago. It takes me one or two hours to create an ad. I search for the ads I like and then retouch in the artists and sometimes modify the layout, create a logo, etc."
