1.5Mviews
We all know that nothing is perfect. Our modern society included. There are many things that are problematic and troubling, and even though we notice them, we are not too fast to work on fixing matters.
Al Margen, an illustrator from Buenos Aires, Argentina, creates incredible drawings pinpointing the flaws of our times. He creates images that are sometimes louder than words and are extremely thought-provoking. The author himself is very critical about his works and talks about them in a really artistic manner: "They are children of boredom, nonconformity or anger. <...> They are the representation of discarded ideas. They are the garbage of the subconscious. But they are more visceral and sincere than other drawings because they have no obligation to please. <...> Because they were born only by an impulse and nothing more. Because they were born to annoy because they show the imperfect."
Take a look at some of his satirical works below and let us know which one was your favorite.

What do you think ?
Incredibly deep, reflective, and scary. Applause to the artist.
Word!
"What's wrong with today's society". Are you kidding? This has been around since the dawn of man. Parents arguing in front of their kids? People lying to others? Smoking is bad? If you think working 9-5 in a computer chair sucks, then imagine working five in the morning until seven at night in a coal mine during the 1800's with no safety regulations. Oh yeah #5? What's that about? Going to college destroys ideas? Nah going to college is a means of expanding your knowledge in a particular field. /rant
Exactly. It should be "What's wrong with an industrialised society".
You're a dumbass, you clearly don't get it...you sheep. I assume you work a 9-5. You're not unique. You're like the rest.
You're very ignorant i assume you work a 9-5. Peasant
Not the Dawn of man but dawn of money and Religion in the English Enterpretation lords of the Temple of the Gross
No, even before we used money people have been greedy.
They're really thought provoking drawings. Would make a good discussion for a college lecture
So none of the subjest depicted had ever occurred to you in some form? The mention of college is peculiar in that you say good discussion for a college lecture. Lecture is not a discussion and why college anyway. It is not a magical think tank of drunken teens away from home, it is only half that. Some of the drawings are variations of images with messages I saw years ago. Odd that this link was sent to me by a person who is always promoting "think positive"!
