Sugar Free, Plaster bust, sugar free gum, 2010
Brooklyn artist Nick van Woert uses some interesting materials on plaster busts. Ok, so now maybe people will start to use their gum as Art instead of spitting it out on the sidewalks in San Francisco.

Børre Sæthre – My Private Sky (Installation)
Norwegian artist Børre Sæthre has a way with the uncanny and is heavily influenced by the sets of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.
I thought of the piece above while listening to The Blues, which is a collaboration between Primary 1 and Nina Persson of the Cardigans.

Snow Whittled 53
From street artist to corporate designer to art world artist. He will be participating in a group show at the Scion Installation Space in Los Angles from February 20 – March 13. Yes, the gallery is owned by the Scion car brand, I guess the street/corporate/art world is a bit blurry these days. The opening reception is on Saturday, February 20th at 7pm.

San Antonio Texas artist Ansen Seale uses slit scan-photography to capture what he refers to as a “hidden reality” . All in camera work and no manipulation using Photoshop or darkroom tricks. Creepy and cool.

Dirty Bomb, 2008
Chicago artist Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle appears to have a since of humor. I didn’t think that was allowed in Chicago. Check out his work, he’s done some amazing installations.
