Hasta La Creative!

Today’s “we hear” concerns moves by two creative leads.

First, we can confirm that Creative Director Tony Lund, who joined New York’s Barbarian Group in January after a pre-Christmas announcement, is no longer with the agency. While we have no official statement on the “why,” our tipster claims that the two parties simply didn’t match up.

Lund primarily handled Pepsi at Barbarian, joining the agency after spending two years as a CD at McCann New York (where he worked on Chevrolet for Commonwealth and IKEA, among other accounts). He started his ad career at Sweden’s Forsman & Bodenfors.

No word on where he will be heading or when/how the agency plans to replace him.
