A Guide to the Art of 'Parks and Recreation' Image via On last night's Parks and Recreation finale, the inimitable Leslie Knope bookended the series' seven seasons with a graduation speech, encouraging all present to “find your team and get to work.”

A Guide to the Art of 'Parks and Recreation'

With those wizened words, she summed up the show in a single sentence, revealing at once the positivity, camaraderie and quirkiness that audiences have come to know and love. Although it often took a backseat to the rest of the humor, art had an important role in Parks and Recreation. While the works themselves skewed towards intense and serious, from perpetually unhelpful Jerry Gergich’s semi-nude paintings and pointillist works, to City Hall’s incredibly inappropriate wall murals, they provided a stream of gags and in-jokes throughout the show's six-year run. Essentially, it was a character in its own right—art, as a whole, brought history and context to Pawnee, and man, was it ridiculous.

After shooting stunning photos of New York from a helicopter, giving it the appearance of a toy city, photographer Vincent Laforet published aerial shots of Las Vegas for an ongoing series he’s calling “Air.”

According to the lensman, he didn’t use a special filter to achieve the amazing hues. “The neon colors and shapes are just surreal in it of themselves,” he writes. “Keep in mind that I’ve spent a maximum of 30-60 seconds max per photo in terms of color correction – with Adobe’s Lightroom application. What you see here is what the camera is picking up.” The images, shot from 10,800 feet above Sin City, are so dazzling that they almost make you forget you’re looking down on America’s bastion of degenerate gamblers.

Who knows why artists in Switzerland keep including drugs in their gallery shows, but hot on the heels of the ecstasy ordering robot, a new exhibition features the city of Zurich painted using a cocaine mixture.

Painting With Cocaine: Artist Uses Blow To Render Switzerland's Largest City

What better way to render the snowy likeness of the city than to use a little snow white? The artist, Onur Dinc, mixed real cocaine in with his paint and sees the work as a way of commenting on the decadence that lies under the surface Zurich, a city which is one of the world’s largest consumers of cocaine. The artist tells Urban Shit: “I wanted to paint a very prude artwork which looks like a master piece which you could find at your grandmother’s living room. The work gets its message only if you know what I mixed into the color”. If this turns out like the drug bot incident, expect Swiss authorities to confiscate the work right around the 14th of February.
