As culture moves, some of the most beautiful skills are lost or neglected as demands shift to ‘easier’ or more ‘efficient’ ways of production. Stella Artois, together with the Ritual Project, put together this beautifully shot short documentary on the dying art of painted advertisements in New York City, and the incredibly skilled artists that produce them.

It’s highly recommended.
