By Abby Wilcox 07 Feb 2013 @ 10:19 am | Categorized: Live_Art>, Studio Visit We’ve been working collaboratively a lot with White Walls SF, because the gallery focuses heavily on street artists, and as you probably already know, we love ourselves some street art. Artist Chad Hasegawa is no exception. I noticed his work about a year ago when I first saw his piece “Mother Market” on 6th & Market, painted on the roll-down of the Luggage Store Gallery.

I literally stared at the bear from across the street – with his jaws wide and teeth rearing – and it appeared almost as if passers-by got swallowed from the sidewalk to forever disappear into the abyss of the bear, literally. I had been looking for similar bears all over the city, and then was serendipitously invited to visit The Tenderlion National Forest, an extension of the Luggage Store Gallery, which Hasegawa currently uses as his studio (and his playground). LF: You’re well known for your bear murals. CH: I’m almost famous. CH: Cheaper. Camp Daybed - Stephanie Hornig Portfolio. Camp Daybed The excessive upholstery and therefore required hard shells of a sofa make it a very bulky piece of furniture. The camp daybed is a sleeping bag with legs, on which we can relax during the day and sleep at night.

It has a very deep seat to provide ample space for sleeping. A padded fabric is hung over the low backrest and tightened with rubber bands. Like in a tent there are attached back pockets to store unused pillows or magazines. Materials: Steel and Vinyl Straps for the Frame, 3d-knitted fabric and cotton for the sleeping bag Dimensions: 200 x 90 x 70 cm (Prototype 2012) FZD School of Design.

25 beautiful gig posters | The Hatched Blog. I remember coming out of gigs when I was a teenager, quickly scanning the streets frantically for gig signage or posters that were rarely left behind by the vultures that had left before the encore. They were prized souvenirs from the show you had just seen and if you were lucky enough to find one then it would go straight up on the littered wall at home (if you could find a space for it.) These posters were one of my first inspirations into Graphic Design and Illustration.

Works of art created by design houses, illustration agencies and sometimes by students or young designers or illustrators just looking to get their work out there, furiously clambering over each other to get the job, to sit in the ‘cool class’ of design and illustration. There are an insane amount of great posters created for gigs all over the world. Here is a small collection of some my favourites. Justin Lowe and Jonah Freeman | Art Talk. Cyberpunk 2077 on Behance.

NOTCOT.ORG. This will bug you... The indestructible micro-animals that can survive the vacuum of space - and most of them are after your blood. By Eddie Wrenn Published: 12:01 GMT, 24 September 2012 | Updated: 16:48 GMT, 24 September 2012 There is only one creature known to man which can survive the ravages of deep space. It is the water bear - officially known as the tardigrade - and despite being a fraction of a millimetre in length and mostly consigned to a lazy life exploring pond moss, it is almost indestructible. You can freeze it at close to absolute zero - at minus 273C - or heat it to above 151C. Or you could keep it without water for a decade, subject it to almost any kind of pressure, or send it into the radiation-filled vacuum of space where it can survive beyond ten days without any damage.

It is just one of the micro-sized and extraordinary bugs living in our back gardens - or even in our own bodies. Hi!

Он собирает различных персонажей и архитектуру в асимметричные композиции, переполненные невероятным чувством драмы. Вместо камней и каркасов он использует пластмассовых салдатиков, миниатюрные блоки, лестницы, шпили и другие предметы, которые только может найти, превращая все это в таинственные завораживающие пейзажи.

The Naughty Nineties: A Saucy Victorian Pop-Up Book for Adults Only. By Maria Popova A pull-tab time machine of risqué rites. Being a lover of unusual pop-up books and naughty Victoriana, imagine my delight at the discovery of The Naughty Nineties: A Saucy Pop-Up Book for Adults Only (public library) — a marvelous 1982 gem that transports you a century back, to the friskiest frontiers of Victorian society in the 1890s, illustrated in a black-and-white ink style reminiscent of Edward Gorey’s and outfitted with various pull-tabs and paper mechanics for your playful pleasure.

And, hey, look — I made some animated GIFs of it. (Though they are no substitute for the analog-interactive real deal.) For a different treat in the same vein of Victorian raunchiness, see Edward Gorey’s The Curious Sofa and Scrap Irony.

Mysterious Surreal Worlds. Art & Design Fulvio di Piazza is a Sicilian artist who creates doomsday-like surreal scenes. His series is called 'Ashes to Ashes', implying a kind of cyclical time of constant destruction and renewal. "Once this world has burned, perhaps the proverbial phoenix will rise. " Helmut Newton – mistrz z poczuciem humoru.

© Helmut Newton Nie trzeba być wybitnym znawcą sztuki, by zauważyć sposób wielu znanych artystów na sławę. Wykonujesz kilka zdjęć z podtekstem seksualnym albo wręcz pokazujesz perwersyjną wizję. Szczególnie dobrze się to sprzeda, jeśli na obrazku pojawi się znana osobistość. Publikujesz w dobrej galerii albo w poczytnym magazynie, zwołujesz kilku dziennikarzy i sukces murowany… Zapewne spotkaliście się już z taką opinią. Odpowiedź jest prosta i oczywista – bo nie wpadłeś nigdy na podobny pomysł, bo Twoje myślenie nie było nigdy wystarczająco abstrakcyjne. Helmut Newton w pewnym sensie wpisuje się w taki typ artysty. Słynie z mocno rozebranych sesji modelek i znanych osobistości. Czytając jakikolwiek wywiad z artystą, mam nieodparte wrażenie, że jego doskonałe poczucie humoru, a także spory dystans do samego siebie przekładają się także na pracę.

Jak sam mówił, w kobietach interesowały go siła, mocna muskulatura i pewność siebie. Jestem absolutnie subiektywnym odbiorcą Helmuta Newtona. FramesFromTheEdge - Helmut Newton. Casey Britt — Digital Art Director, Designer, Developer, Creative – New York, NY.
