The Making of a Great Martini

12 panels in 3 rows of four panels each. A man (painterly, abstracted, with a wide mustache and neat hair and wearing a dinner jacket) stands before a cocktail shaker, a martini glass, and a dish holding an olive. The next panels show his frenzied shaking of the shaker, with motion blurs a-plenty. In the final panel, he is standing again, his hair blown out, in front of a completed martini. The dish is empty. There is also a bottle of Absolut visible.

Lithograph by Guy Buffet, 2000. Also, if it were really perfect it would be stirred and made with gin.

I unequivocally love this - except for the product placement, which robs it of its magic.

@MackReed Yeah, it is not dissimilar to Buffet's other work (which I looked up after seeing this) but it was commissioned by Absolut for an ad.

@y95 People within the design and marketing trade can be thoroughly convinced of the cultural value of their work. If you've ever spent time in certain design studios around awards time, you could get a good sense of how insufferable they can get about it.
