Increíble Arte a partir de objetos de azar - Ilusión 360 - Arte más impresionantes del mundo , Diseño , Tecnología y Video French artist Bernard Pras remakes famous paintings through the use of daily objects. Fantastic! Notes about Pras (from bio): Pras was born in 1952 in the south-west of France in a toy shop.After more than 20 years spent as a painter, and also a sculptor of recovered objects, Pras conceived in 1997, an astonishing form of expression, using photography as a basis for the creation of what amounts to a form of installation art.Pras’s work does not illustrate the painter’s art but the way the eye views an object.In fact, brush and paint are replaced by the object itself.By anamorphosis he creates a picture in relief and gives birth to portraits by randomly accumulating common objects.

Home | Studio Drift Ironic and unrealistic touch to the world of comics If you liked the article about the “things wouldn’t be so much fun if” – comics where everything was turned upside down such like pillows having fights with human bodies, or ice creams licking children, you will definitely like this one also. This time there has been added an ironic and unrealistic touch to the pictures. These ilustrations are made by artist Glennz. You can see how aliens are making crop circles with harvester, how a hook hand is using an iPhone and how runners are running with scissors in their hands and many other cool illustrations here. “Gif-fiti” animated murals by INSA I was stoked to meet INSA in Melbourne not too long ago. Really loving all the animated pieces he’s been doing lately. When these images pop up on Tumblr I’m sure there’s a bunch of people who don’t realise he’s actually re-painting the walls several times to achieve these effects. Incredible stuff.

This Isn’t Your Typical G.I. Joe – Action Figures of Real People As the holiday season approaches, you might have some children in your life who are asking for Barbies, or Disney Princesses, or Transformers, or Star Wars action figures. Instead of supporting an interest in Barbie (whose physique defies all natural laws), or the princesses (who set feminism back about a gazillion years), or in a franchise that gets lamer and lamer by the moment (I blame it on Jar Jar) why not buy that special someone a historical, literary, or real-life-celebrating action figure instead? Historical Action Figures OK, so maybe Alexander the Great wasn’t the NICEST guy in the world, but he was pretty smart and pretty tough. Maybe he’s a good substitute for a Transformer, or GI Joe (do they even still sell those?). Or, if he’s not your cup of tea, perhaps a strong female character would make a good gift. Anne Bonny was a female pirate. Annie Oakley was the first female superstar in American (thanks, Wikipedia!) Edward Teach, aka Blackbeard, was not such a bad guy. Freud!

thibautmalet Chris Jordan - Running the Numbers II This new series looks at mass phenomena that occur on a global scale. Similarly to the first Running the Numbers series, each image portrays a specific quantity of something: the number of tuna fished from the world's oceans every fifteen minutes, for example. But this time the statistics are global in scale, rather than specifically American. Finding meaning in global mass phenomena can be difficult because the phenomena themselves are invisible, spread across the earth in millions of separate places. There is no Mount Everest of waste that we can make a pilgrimage to and behold the sobering aggregate of our discarded stuff, seeing and feeling it viscerally with our senses. Instead, we are stuck with trying to comprehend the gravity of these phenomena through the anaesthetizing and emotionally barren language of statistics. Compounding this challenge is our sense of insignificance as individuals in a world of 6.7 billion people. ~cj, Seattle, February 2009
