French surrealist Guy Billout is responsible for some of the most awesomely thought-provoking illustrations you'll see out there. The key to his meaningful artworks is that they don't just shout "surrealism", but usually feature settings that look totally realistic until one detail turns everything around.

Guy Billout’s topsy-turvy illustrations subvert our perception of the world with clever twists and ironic flourishes. French-born Guy came to New York in 1969 and has worked as an illustrator ever since, but it’s taken us until now to celebrate his magnificent work on the site. Offering a subtle but thought-provoking approach to editorial illustration, Guy’s work has been featured in publications including _The New Yorker_, _The Atlantic_, and _The Wall Street Journal_ numerous times over.

We’re all very mindful of aesthetics, whether we’re consciously aware of it or not. On an instinctive level, we deeply enjoy looking at beautiful things. It’s not only that, though. We want that which is beautiful. Lance Hosey writes in The New York Times: “Brain scan studies reveal that the sight of an attractive product can trigger the part of the motor cerebellum that governs hand movement. Instinctively, we reach out for attractive things; beauty literally moves us.”
