French artist makes the Louvre Pyramid disappear, sort of


Everyone loves a good optical illusion, and this vanishing act by JR is nothing short of impressive. The French multimedia artist has spent the past few weeks covering the Louvre Pyramid with black and white wallpapers that mirror the famous palace behind it. When viewed from a certain angle, the pyramid seems to disappear completely. The eye-tricking installation will remain in place until June 27.

    Les galeries d'art peuvent être exclusives ou ouvertes au public. Les galeries exclusives n'admettent que les personnes qui ont été invitées à la vitrine ou les personnes qui répondent aux exigences prédéfinies. Ces galeries peuvent avoir des objectifs tels que la présentation et la vente des œuvres d'un individu ou d'un groupe d'artistes. C'est dans ces galeries que les artistes en herbe peuvent être reconnus, car il y a plus de professionnels qui comprennent l'art. Les galeries d'art ouvertes au public peuvent également présenter de nombreux avantages. Pascal Robaglia & Pascal Robaglia Étant donné que le public de ces galeries est généralement plus nombreux, le travail de l'artiste peut acquérir une plus grande visibilité auprès du public, gagnant ainsi de la reconnaissance pour l'artiste. Un droit d'entrée s'applique parfois à ces galeries pour qu'elles fonctionnent.

Enigmatic Shapes and Psychedelic Patterns

To say that I love Sanagi 's work is an understatement. Looking at her art feels sort of therapeutic, and I find her drawings refreshingly intricate. They're trippy, psychedelic, and resemble something that you might see under a microscope. Not much is Googleable about Sanagi, but that's fine. There aren't many artists these days that still pull off the whole mysterious vibe, so I commend her for that. By the way... they're all hand-drawn with pen and ink.

James DeRosso's ceramic monsters

I really like these whimsical ceramic creatures by James DeRosso. Yes, they have bulging eyes and toothy grins, but they're not scary at all. The Portland-based artist started making cute monsters while he was a student to jokingly create gargoyle-like guardians for the kiln. After other students kept taking his quirky little figures, he realized there was a market for them. "I'm enjoying the whole monster making niche," James says. "It's amazingly gratifying to be doing ceramics full time and especially to be a teacher introducing kids to the joy of clay." Be sure to visit his website and like his Facebook page for the latest monster news.
