Another example of photography and concept coming together in harmony. Quite sure that is real thread, quite sure that is a real woman, quite sure we like the whole thing.

Tattoos on Classics by Jean-Luc Moerman
February 2nd, 2012
Belgian artist Jean-Luc Moerman has created this nice series of tattoos-like work over the top of religious classics. The baby balls, must we say, look better in Moerman’s hands. Er, we mean pen. (via)

Thursday Never Knows: “I Want to Tell You”
February 2nd, 2012
One of the most underrated songs in the Beatles catalog (which is a dumb thing to even write) is the George Harrison 1966 gem, “I Want to Tell You.” Revolver is full of special moments, jumping from feeling to feeling, and Harrison seems to more in-tune with Lennon on this album, taking pop to new levels.

Geometric Porn
February 1st, 2012
Geometric Porn from Luciano Foglia on Vimeo.
Not to sound too obvious, but the colors on this thing are incredible, Say artist Luciano Fogllia, who created this, “Something abstract existing in thought or as an idea but not having a physical or concrete existence. Visual geometry containing the non-explicit description of sexual organs or activity. Arising in the mind it intends to stimulate erotic rather than aesthetic or emotional feelings.” (via)

What White People Look Like
February 1st, 2012
Just in case you forgot, these are white people together in couples who probably don’t like each other much except for the money they have.

Nintendo Dry Gin
February 1st, 2012
As part of Anna Utopia Giordano’s Pop Bottles, there is a Nintendo Dry Gin. According to DadCamp, “The bottles are clever and, as with all great art, are a brilliant inspiration for discussion on a number of topics: How many brands are my kids exposed to and how young? What kind of food am I feeding my family? How young are my kids experimenting with alcohol?”

Thom Yorke Tuesday: “Arpeggi/Weird Fishes” Live
January 31st, 2012
A good live era for the band, guitars and soundscapes in tact, charging drum beat, off-kilter bass, Mr Yorke going with a lonely love song of a lyric, and a build-up like only Radiohead does. They were grown ups here.

Mr T: The Posters of Jerzy Treutler
January 31st, 2012
Kemistry Gallery and Twarda Sztuka Foundation are proud to present Mr T: The Posters of Jerzy Treutler – a celebration of Treutler’s work from the 60s & 70s , and classic Polish poster design
Treutler is recognised internationally for his participation in the School of Polish Posters. From his graduation from the Warsaw Fine Art Academy in 1955 to the 1990s, Treutler designed film, exhibition, sport and national information posters for various central agencies; creating over 150 posters, several book covers and numerous corporate logos and illustrations.
Treutler was able to create powerful imagery, inspired by movies and events without actually detailing them: no head shots and movie stills, no specifically direct connection to the title. His work utilises bold colour, simple imagery and vivid lines to underline the strength of the message, and is distinguished by an abstract style typical of the Polish poster artist. Treutler’s posters are as fresh and engaging today as when they were first produced.
