Monochrome_anachron-1

That’s the amazing idea by Michael Johansson: to get everything, regular and irregular, to turn into regularly ArtWorks. A kind of Tetris Art.

“I am intrigued by irregularities in daily life. Not those that appear when something extraordinary occurs, but those that are created by an exaggerated form of regularity. Colours or patterns from two separate objects or environments concur, like when two people pass each other dressed in the exact same outfit. Or when you are switching channels on your TV and realize that the same actor is playing two different roles on two different channels at the same time. Or that one day the parking lot contained only red cars” he writes.

“These irregularities, these coincidences, are another focus of my artwork.” And now have at Michael Johansson’s site to find out all his amazing ideas.

guerra delapaz3

Alain Guerra and Neraldo de la Paz became a creative team in 1996. Their art is based on a combination of traditional disciplines and experimentation with dimension and the use of unconventional materials. For this sculputers and installations they used huge quantities of reclaimed textiles, in particular old ties: “Snakecharmer Portrait”.

Their figurative sculptures are always deeply ambitious in scale for the exceptional handicraft details and because they address difficult actual themes live violence, war, waste, consumerism….

honda selfridges

That’s the creative work of the young artist Kyle Bean: black and white Honda Fireblade suspended from one side of a set of scales, with a fully disassembled Fireblade balancing these out with its hundreds of parts hanging individually on wires of varying lengths. Window display in the world famous Selfridges department store on Oxford Street in London.

The display theme is ‘The Conservation of Mass’, with the displays cleverly and innovatively highlighting how matter cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
