Watch Out For Massive Murals

Watch out for massive murals, empowered once again by digital technology that can easily alter form, scale and colour. Leading the field is Digetex (0161 873 8891; www.digetex.com).

Lego Sculptures

Nathan Sawaya is an artist who creates pretty amazing sculptures out of LEGO bricks. And they’re not just recreations of objects, like a car or a building, but actual creative sculptures. Although none of them compare to my LEGO masterpiece: a giant rectangle. Via : www.geekologie.com

Fashion is Art

A recently emerging fashion trend has designers asserting their believe that “fashion is art” by transforming their designs into a living painting. The dresses are treated as a canvas and exquisitely painted as an artistic painting.

Furniture or Art

London-based James Hopkins takes everyday objects and makes them do tricks in his current exhibition From This End to That.

Bruce Nauman’s installation of three fountain sculptures wraps up today at the Donald Young Gallery in Chicago.

A Thousand Pairs of High-heeled Shoes Art

Willie Cole has often depended on found objects for his sculptural works, so when he recently came upon a supply of several thousand pairs of high-heeled shoes, it was time to go back to one of his original inspirations.

Montana sculptor Deborah Butterfield has focused on horses throughout her career and her pieces range from delicate animals of straw, sticks and mud to sturdier cast bronzes or found metals.

Verticality

One of the striking themes amongst the works of Vancouver sculptor John Clair Watts is their verticality. Watts uses a variety of materials for his pieces, but their link is to be found in the constant reaching upwards. Wider at the base, the pieces taper, as though they are stretching to their utmost in the [...]

Neighbours’ Laundry Art

Esma Paça Turam uses silicone in a hot glue gun to create delicate, shimmering sculptures that are lacy and web like, inspired by raindrops flowing down glass. Turam loves the control that this material gives her and the fact that she can draw directly with it, creating intricate pieces that depict domes and bazaars, or [...]

Mythical Creatures With Paper Folding And Wire

Polly Verity does the most incredible paper folding and wire work. These small mythical creatures are part of a series, each first formed as wire bases, covered in tissue paper, with folded paper inserts.

Another Mountain

Richard Deacon’s current Paris exhibition features several of his large free standing sculptures, including a very large stainless steel one called Another Mountain. The simple tubes of steel, like sausage links, connect to form a structure that looks to be full of movement, as though the tubes are leaning or pushing against each other. Not [...]

Sculptured Wreaths

Kate Street’s sculptured wreaths are rich in colour and form, and it is only when one approaches that the bugs and flies that lurk within become apparent. Pocket watches dangle from beaks, eyeballs dot a black-petal heart crossed by a sword, and flies hide among the licorice allsorts and chocolatey leaves. There is an air [...]

Contemporary Bizarre Art Photography

Phil Toledano’s photographs are a contemporary representation of what he believes to be the hopes and fears that run through America today.

Fallen Bierstadt

Art has always needed patrons and House of Campari fits the bill quite nicely.

Hegarty’s piece is a reconstruction of a landscape by Albert Bierstadt that she pushes several [...]

An Imagined Archeo-logism

DIG: An Imagined Archeo-logism is an exhibition of ceramics by Sierra Pecheur, based on the artist’s belief that “history is made of skulls and bones and hearts.” During this show of about 400 pieces, the skulls and bones are sold by the pound, so Pecheur has had to keep up production in order to keep [...]

Optical Illusion

This warming image comes from The Australian Postal Service.
The text in the background of the image appears to be wrapping around the hugging couple. It says, “If you really want to touch someone, send them a letter”.
The concept is a nice optical illusion that really brings the metaphor to life. Great ad.
