Veet "Goodbye Bush" advertisement
Advertisements have always been opportunistic. Any large scale event is sure to draw the creation juice from marketing professionals. Just think superbowl.
Here we have a fine example of that concept. The Veet advertisement pictured is very simple, consisting of nothing but 2 words (not even about the product!) and a logo. Yet, it is somehow extremely powerful. It takes full advantage of the political state of America. Why not? Props to the designer.
The architect Mies Van Rohe coined the maxim that "less is more." I think this ad is a great example of that.
