Real Pop Art

You don’t want it to be popped art… the amazing copies of ‘serious’ famous paintings made from balloons. From the Mona Lisa to Whistler’s Mother, all have been recreated in surprisingly accurate balloon form. The amazing artwork – dubbed ‘Airigami’ – is the fun creation of artist and former street magician Larry Moss from New York. Larry, 40, said his Master Works series was a whimsical portrayal of the world’s most famous, more ‘serious’ art. His popular designs can make hundreds of thousands of dollars. His portfolio also includes a massive 10,000 sq ft haunted house made from a staggering 100,000 balloons.” w/ photos

Toaster Made From Slices Of Toast

The Toaster is a large picture, 16ft wide and 14.5ft high, totally made from slices of bread toasted in different lengths of time to reach the nuances between black and white, ochre and rust. It took several days of work and several friends and their toasters to prepare the 2.500 pieces of toast necessary to build the gigantic mosaic, which reproduce a photograph of a toaster. The Toaster was among public and press the most popular work at the Buenos Aires Biennial , a “public magnet” as an art critic called it, having an unusual big impact in the news papers and TV. After the Biennial was acquired by the Modern Art Museum of Buenos Aires, being now a part of it’s permanent collection.” w/ photos

Crumbling Letters

“Cnjpus Text is the third in a series of text-based installations that Shimizu has been making since 2009. The words on the wall actually make sense in the English language, written in the traditional Roman alphabet, but using Chinese strokes calligraphy. To add up to it, the kanji characters not restructured were left on the floor, as if they had fallen, illustrating an undeniably present cultural clash.” w/ photos
