Self Portrait as Panda
"
This self portrait as a robot panda was inspired by a dream."
Thats just brilliant. Love the detail on the hands.

Stunning work by Justin Lee Williams. Eerie and beautiful all in one.



Jen Stark
Jen creates stunning paper-sculptures. Some of these are so complex its almost unfathomable how she made them. Watch this video to learn more about her work.



Folkert de Jong
Amsterdam based artist Folkert de Jong is having an exhibition at Luis Adelantado Gallery in Valencia, Spain opening January 9th, 2009.
I had seen de Jong's sculptures at Peres Projects here in Los Angeles back in January 2007 and was blown away by the whole installation. With his work carrying quite a few layers of creepiness and tragicomedy while being both raw and delicate in the execution, I often end up hypnotized.
I am curious to see this new body of work. Maybe at Peres sometimes next year.



Temporal - The Art of Stephan Doitschinoff
About the Film:
From 2005—2008, Stephan Doitschinoff traveled throughout the Brazilian countryside of Bahia, painting site-specific murals on adobe houses, chapels, and even a cemetery. In the small village of Lençóis, he collaborated with local artisans, and expanded his research into the rich history of Brazilian folklore and the syncretism between Christian theology and African spiritual traditions.
See more of Stephan's art and buy his book over at gestalten.



I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it.



Touchy Artist Flips Out On 60 Minutes
"Perhaps the imploding real estate market is getting under the skin of Julian Schnabel, the artist turned film director turned high-end condo developer. The auteur's movies are widely admired and his smashed-plate paintings were at least big in the 1980s, but his hot pink ("Pompeii red") Palazzo Chupi has turned into a controversial icon for angry neighbors, gauche celebrity speculators and tumbling prices. And though Chupi didn't come up during Schnabel's 60 Minutes interview, the thin-skinned artist didn't take this blessing to heart, instead lashing out at Morley Shafer for daring to ask about art critic Robert Hughes, one of his most prominent detractors."

Its amazing what you can do with a bit of tape! Great remixed artworks.

ART IS A BIOLOGICAL CATALYST OF HUMANS. AS SUCH, IT MAY AND MUST ANALYZE AND DEFINE SOCIAL TABOOS. ART IS THE VISUAL EXTENSION OF PHILOSOPHY - PHILOSOPHY IS THE ART OF THINKING. ART COMES FROM THINKING, AND NOT FROM TALENT
Dark and mysterious mixed-media illustrations.
