I couldn’t help but direct everyone to fellow public art loving blog Street Art Utopia as they have compiled a pretty decent list of the best street art of 2011. If you are just getting into the wonderful world of pasting, spraying or making the streets a more creative place, this list is a great place to start (short of Wall and Piece ). One of the best things about this genre is it’s diversity – you can decided what you find gimmicky/twee or meaningful and awe-inspiring. Street art has always been the public’s voice, and the art world has yielded success to those with great ideas and a call for change.
On March 10, 1869, railroad officials, political leaders and work gangs converged at Promontory Point, Utah, to drive in the last spike of the Pacific Railroad, the first of five transcontinental railroads built in the 19th century. The driving of the spike linked the Union Pacific line built from East to West with the Central Pacific, which had commenced construction in California. On January 28, 1986, after about 73 seconds into its launch, space shuttle Challenger exploded, leading to the deaths of its seven crew members, which included the first teacher in space. The first transcontinental telegraph line went into operation 149 years ago on October 24, 1861, when the gap between the country’s eastern and western networks was closed.
Usually artists work alone, but sometimes a collaboration works out well. A good example is the street artists Chazme, Lump and Sepe . They worked together to make the streets of Poland look better.

“Tim Flach brings his subjects into such close focus that we begin to read their poses and gestures as we would the body language of a human figure, face or hand.”
For her series “ Shake “, pet photographer Carli Davidson photographed curious portraits of dogs shaking off water. Use a fast shutter speed and you can capture all kinds of strange expressions on your dog’s face.
это очень не обычная и неординарная подборка. очень часто особенно в последнее время на сайте появляются работы нервнобольных, и людей с искажённой психикой. но художник нарисовавший эти работы - его гениальность в том , что он максимально близко приблизился к этой грани не пересекая её. пересматриваю в 7 или уже 8 раз , красота не открывается сразу, столько глубинного смысла ( или намёка на него , который пытливый ум воспринимает за смысл ) каждый раз что-то новое , глаз цепляется за одну деталь перепрыгивает на другую и потом глубже глубже уходит в картину. я видел гораздо более удачною технику, и не могу назвать эти работы шедевром , Но Глубина.. да , меня захватило . Очень достойная подборка. Спасибо..
This planet we live on offers us beauty beyond words. Every country has its own special region that takes your breath away with the magnificence of it. Here we can see some places that are a geological wonder that you may know about already, or maybe not? Antelope Canyon is one of the world's most beautiful canyons. Called Tse bighanilini in Navaho, which means "the place where water runs through rocks", it is found in the state of Arizona. It was formed from the erosion of rocks, when flash floods above picked up speed and grit.
