We’re always on the lookout for cool pop-culture related visual art, so we can’t thank the good folks at Brain Pickings enough for drawing our attention to Israeli artist Noma Bar and his book Guess Who: The Many Faces of Noma Bar. This 2007 volume collects 50 of Bar’s minimalist vector portraits of iconic figures from the world of film, science, literature, politics, music, and more. We’ve picked out ten of our favorites from the book; check ‘em out after the jump.
Bar’s portraits are primarily of single figures, though he did work up this ingenious image of Pulp Fiction‘s John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson by seizing on their iconic hairstyle and the guns that they wield throughout the picture.
