Handsome Frank is a U.K. talent agency representing artists and commercial illustrators, and to help promote their artists, the agency recently asked Twitter followers to tweet out "illustration briefs" (art ideas) they'd like to see created into art.  Over 200 briefs/ideas were tweeted out--including Tim Burgess' request to see an illustration of New Order's "Blue Monday" and another follower's idea to "see inside the mind of Stanley Kubrick."  Handsome Frank took the best brief ideas, handed them over to their artists for inspiration, and voila--art was created!

The results are now on display as part of the Tweet-A-Brief exhibition in London, and a few photos from the exhibit opening (including the pic of the "Blue Monday" inspired art) are posted here and Creative Review posted a feature on the exhibit with photos here.  Other photos from the exhibit are posted here and here. The Tweet-A-Brief exhibition runs through July 22nd at the The Church of London.
