I'ma sucker for light installations!

i like lights, too! now i need to post those 'fluro tubes in a field'...

i'm pretty sure his "installation" would have gone by now, it was near bristol somewhere, i think.

get some fluorescent tubes and stick them under some electrickery pylons from what i understand, the pylon that he 'stuck 'em under was not typical - it carried the powerlines lower than normal due to flight paths, and maybe even more cables than normal. it's all to do with the field created between the cables and the ground, though. i'm sure it could be done at loads of different sites.

Artist Roger Hiorns has found a novel use for a condemned flat - he's caked it in copper sulphate crystals. read more about it at the guardian.

It's a pity she doesn't post on YH anymore eh?

i wonder if she gets tired of drawing the same thing over and over and over and over.

likely not, since they sell so well.

a lot of talent, but it's the same thing.. over and over and over.

quilt patterns! wow

nice

can't embed this, but it's very much worth watching

Gardens of Numbers

Inspired by the complex numerical relationships identified in talismanic objects or tables the Iranian artist Yahya Fiuzi creates art by interpreting the numbers as colours. Doing so, he produces intricate abstract geometrical shapes which celebrate the numerical relationships throughout the work but also produces works of a highly aesthetic nature.

ok, that wasn't really my kind of thing (i didn't think i had a thing, tbh. but it seems i must have, and it isn't that ). i did, however, dig his fluorescent paintings.

"skip intro" button, please. maybe a plain html site... hehe

You know Shepard Fairey is a political activist, a graphic designer, a social movement, and a tagger. But is he also museum quality?

Boston's Institute of Contemporary Art seems to think so. They just announced a retrospective of Shepard Fairey's work set for February 2009 - the first time a major museum has ever given him a solo show.

just so you know... i cruise Stot often, too.

was really stoked to see the resurgence of the Guerrilla Girls™ work.

Olafur Eliasson's The Weather Project commissioned for the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern in London.

Still one of the best installations I've ever experienced.

[edit] I can't see the video. bah

Thanks, Orson!

Happy birthday or something...
