Shocking Art Pieces

admin — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 01:52:47 +0000

Enough about human growth hormone for sale. Allow me to share something cool (once again) to everyone who visits my blog. I came across this post while looking for weird art collections and may I say they just fall right into that category. I love it! It’s edgy, unique and just totally mind-blowing. If your art can affect people as much as these can, then you’re on the right track.

Liz and Phil Down by the Lake by Greg Taylor

This Australian sculpture featured Elizabeth and Prince Philip sitting in the buff in front of the Canberra Parliament House. It lasted a mere week before an angry protester beheaded Queen Elizabeth. Further vandalism of the sculpture resulted in its removal.

Piss Christ by Andres Serrano

Serrano caused a scandal that was heavily debated on the floor of the United States Senate in 1989. The photograph of a tiny plastic crucifix in a cup of Serrano’s urine sparked much debate surrounding artistic freedom, but won a competition held by the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art.

Love and Redemption by Joel Peter-Witkin

Peter-Witkin’s highly graphic photography features the dismembered arm and head of a human corpse. This piece was created in Mexico, because its production would have been illegal in the United States.

Shark by David Cerny

This work was created as a parody of the equally controversial Damien Hirst piece entitled “The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living.” Cerny’s version depicts a nearly naked Saddam Hussein handcuffed and suspended in a tank of formeldehyde.

Tilt-Shift Photography

admin — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 10:32:27 +0000

Just thought I’d share with you something that I came across online. It’s about tilt-shift photography, a procedure that involves tilting and shifting camera movements to emulate the depth of field of a macro lens. With this type of photography, you can make life-size objects look like they are miniatures. It’s very cool and I’m very excited to try this out myself.

More Wallpapers to Inspire You

admin — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 03:10:05 +0000

Whenever I start with a design concept, it’s important that I surround myself with things that can inspire me. It could be a blog, a cartoon drawing, a piece of fabric or even an old photo. It doesn’t matter as long as it lets my creative juices flowing. Most of the time, whenever I run out of ideas, I just click the desktop button on my toolbar and whatever is on my screen should be enough to refresh my head. So without further ado, let me showcase some really nice wallpapers for dual screens and triple monitors.
