Burning Man 2010 on the Behance Network. Vj companies. Junk Portraits by Zac Freeman. Since 1999, Zac began collecting junk found around often in the trash, then glued to a wooden substrate to form an image an image – in the case, portraits. His artworks are made by assembling on a large-scale (the pieces average about 28 “by 35″) and when viewed up close looks like a series of small objects stuck meaningless, but when seen from far away are impressive portraits. > zacfreemanart.com.

Candy Chang. 2010New Orleans, LA Interactive public art project that invites residents to share their hopes for vacant buildings. Chang placed boxes of free stickers in businesses around the city and posted thousands of stickers on vacant buildings across New Orleans, so anyone walking by could fill one out. The stickers are vinyl and can be easily removed without damaging property. Responses ranged from the functional to the poetic: I wish this was… a butcher shop, a community garden, a bike rack, a place to sit and talk, an affordable farmer’s market, a taco stand, a donut/flower shop, full of nymphomaniacs with PhDs, a source of tasty healthy food I could afford, my art gallery, your dream, Heaven.

More in 3D here. More in Lego here. More in 3D here. More Little People here. A Stunning, Intricate Maze Made From 2,200 Pounds of Salt | Co.Design. Motoi Yamamoto has to be the most patient man in the world. A Japanese artist, Yamamoto uses salt to create monumental floor paintings, each so absurdly detailed, it makes A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte look like child's play. He calls them, fittingly, his Labyrinths.

Yamamoto's latest labyrinth creeps out from a brick tunnel at the Fondation Espace Ecureuil, a gallery in France. He made it -- as he makes all these installations -- by sprinkling salt on the floor through a plastic bottle used for machine oil, starting at the back of the tunnel, then moving forward to avoid stepping on the designs he's already drawn. The whole thing took 50 hours over the course of five days and a whopping 2,200 pounds of salt. Here's an older installation at Sankt Peter parish in Cologne: The story behind Yamamoto's salt sculptures is sweet and sad.

Yamamoto takes pains to extend the metaphor beyond the walls of the art gallery. Slow Drawing Calendar.

Using multiple layers of clear glass, Canada based David Spriggs and Chinese born Xia Xiaowan, transform flat artwork into 3D sculptures. Viewers are treated to different shifting perspectives of the works based on where they stand in the art space. Spriggs work revolves around powerful explosive imagery, often resembling storms, cosmic blasts or firework like explosions. Xiawan’s “spatial paintings,” which often feature distorted figures, are drawn individually using colored pencil on tinted glass.

Only when these pieces are combined on their floor racks do the images create the whole hologram like effect.

Il lee « style/SWOON. Oh the patience… The first time I saw the work of Il Lee was in a Santa Fe gallery at the Gerbert Contemporary. It was so different, truly amazing. HUGE pieces of art done solely with a blue ballpoint pin on canvas. I kept staring at it thinking ‘how many ballpoint pens did he have to use to do that’? I was fascinated and it stuck with me because it was so unusual. I can’t fathom the time it would take to create a piece of art like this. Thanks to the guest curator Jan Yeung, Il Lee currently has an exhibition at the Crow Museum of Asian Art. Images via art projects international. Lighting. Bokeh Photography - 30 Examples Of Bokeh Photography. Posted on Oct 09, 2010 | Comments 0 107.8K Flares107.8K Flares × Bokeh Photography simply means bringing out the sharpness of your focus area by aesthetically blurring the out-of-focus area of your picture.

The term comes from the Japanese word boke, which means “blur” or “haze”, or boke-aji, the “blur quality”. While clicking your picture you will have to be close to the area of your focus and also see to it that there is a good amount of distance between the focus area and the background area. You can even have a whole shot as a Bokeh Picture and you don’t even need to have any particular focus area. The reduced field-depth will suddenly make the most mundane areas alive. But the most dramatic affect comes if you have lights in the background. Here are 30 Examples of Bokeh Photography for you to enjoy seeing.

One Sheet of Paper. We already had a post of Weird Toilet Paper Roll Art, showing Yuken Teruya’s beautiful cutouts of Toilet paper rolls, and now I present another super creative artist, Peter Callesen, who does something similar, but this time out of single A4 paper sheets. “Lately I have worked almost exclusively with white paper in different objects, paper cuts, installations and performances. A large part of my work is made from A4 sheets of paper. It is probably the most common and consumed media used for carrying information today. This is why we rarely notice the actual materiality of the A4 paper. By taking away all the information and starting from scratch using the blank white A4 paper sheet for my creations, I feel I have found a material that we are all able to relate to, and at the same time the A4 paper sheet is neutral and open to fill with different meaning.

The thin white paper gives the paper sculptures a frailty that underlines the tragic and romantic theme of my works.” Peter Callesen. PersonalNote. Did you know on an average week I may be approached by as many as 20-35 artists looking for gallery representation? Most of them are ineffective. Are you making the same mistakes they are? Before I explain, let me introduce myself. My name is Jason Horejs. I have owned Xanadu Gallery in Scottsdale, Arizona for more than eight years. In August I publishied my new book, "Starving" to Successful | The Artist's Guide to Getting into Galleries and Selling More Art. This book was written to help you approach galleries in an organized, systematic and professional way. This book comes from my experiences with artists. That lack of information leads to these blunders: Mistake #1: Presenting an inconsistent body of work.

Artists generally love their freedom. Often I feel I am looking at the work of multiple artists as I review a single portfolio. If you work in several media and a variety of styles, focus on just one for the next 6-12 months. Don’t despair if you are far from reaching this goal. 1. The wind and the sun make the waves in a visually appealing — Dagorret. Human Bones Used to Make Art. Francois Robert has created a series of powerful artworks made out of real human bones to remind people about the consequences of violence. Human skeleton is a strong visual symbol that represents what is left after life has ended, after the flesh and mind cease to function. Also check out: Fruit and Vegetable Skulls. With Maidens of Mystery - The artwork of Audrey Kawasaki | culturazzi.

Audrey Kawasaki is a Los Angeles-based painter, known for her characteristic works that are painted directly onto wood panels. Kawasaki studied fine art painting at the Pratt Institute in New York City, but left after two years without completing her degree. The emphasis that New York art standards put on conceptual art was at odds with her painting ideologies and was the reason for her leaving. The unique style that she renders to her artworks can be described as a fusion of eastern as well as western traditions such as Art Nouveau and Japanese Manga comics. Audrey’s paintings are portrayals of young, mesmerizing women who come across as innocent and tantalizing at once.

Her use of subdued colors, misty backgrounds, and delicate embellishments creates a magical effect within her paintings. The sultry female figures exist in their own mysterious realm, yet at the same time present a sense of accessibility that draws the observer to them.
