52 Shades of Greed

A group of illustrators have conceptualized a deck of playing cards, dubbed "52 Shades of Greed", that lambastes Wall Street execs and politicians for their roles in the financial crisis.

"52 Shades of Greed is a deck of playing cards bearing illustrations of the people and financial institutions whose lust for money took the rest of us for a ride toward economic collapse," the Alternative Banking Group of Occupy Wall Street said in a release.

The creators are currently hosting a fundraiser for the project. They said they hope to cut 1,000 decks to give out during Occupy Wall Street's one year anniversary on September 17th. 

Marc Scheff, the art director for 52 Shades of Greed, has allowed us to run some of the artwork from the 26 professional illustrators who participated in the slides that follow.
