The Cellist" by Victor Garza Premium Canvas Starting at just $99 Buy Now Framed Print Starting at just $139 Buy Now Acrylic Starting at just $149 Buy Now THE AGE OF MASS INTELLIGENCE We’ve all heard about dumbing down. But there is plenty of evidence that the opposite is also true. Is this, in fact, the age of mass intelligence? John Parker reports... From INTELLIGENT LIFE magazine, Winter 2008 Russell Southwood is queuing outside his local cinema in south London, listening to his iPod. That’s increasingly true. Cultural incongruities are popping up everywhere. The sharpest of all these cultural contrasts, though, was the one taking place at the Royal Opera House itself the night Russell Southwood was queuing. In most rich countries, the old distinction between high and popular culture is breaking down. Millions more people are going to museums, literary festivals and operas; millions more watch demanding television programmes or download serious-minded podcasts. That may seem Pollyanna-ish. In 2006 the New York Metropolitan Opera started an experiment to reach a new audience. Literary festivals show the same thing. No doubt these long-run trends have played a role.
Lorenzo Duran - Designaside.com - StumbleUpon L’artista spagnolo Lorenzo Duran si avvale delle foglie come tela per le sue incisioni. Dopo il lavaggio e l’essiccazione, rimuove con precisione chirurgica ed estrema cura i segmenti in eccesso, usando una tecnica simile a quella del tradizionale paper cutting. Quest’ultimo passo è ovviamente il più difficile vista la fragilità del materiale scelto, il risultatò di questo processo è una serie di affascinanti disegni geometrici incredibilmente belli e dilicati. Grazie a Francesca per il suggerimento. via: illusion.scene360.com

Beautiful/Decay Cult of the Creative Arts Gabriel Moreno does beautiful work with such basic materials: a pen and a brush. His illustrations begin in black and white, upon which Moreno builds, adding layers of color and images of other places and people tattooed into their skin. Flowers, birds, and faces organically expand from his subjects, as if a rush of creativity, or a dream, is escaping them. Hyper-Realistic Rubber: Tire Sculpture by Yong Ho Ji - Unfinished Man - StumbleUpon Whenever I take road trips, I often notice the hulking shreds of stripped semi tires laying around, and I’ve always thought two things: one, they look almost organic- like they’re actually the carcasses of some prehistoric animal that blundered its way onto the highway, and two- that that animal must have been damn ugly. But when I saw a tire sculpture by Yong Ho Ji the other day, I realized I was pretty wrong about the hideous part. He reassembles strips of old tires with resins and screws into gorgeous creatures with predatory stances and sinuous movement. We love our cars, so seeing tires re-purposed after their regular lifespan into perfect manly sculptures is totally bad ass. It’s the macho trifecta: hang one of these rubber animal busts on the wall, and you get the appearance of being an awesome trophy hunter without actually killing any animals, you’re saving the planet by recycling, and your sculpture isn’t some sissy flowers or soapstone carved by a three year old.
