Guillermo del Toro's horror memorabilia to go on display at LACMA


Guillermo del Toro has amassed a vast collection of creepy art over the years. Now, he intends to share them with fans in a new exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, which will run from July 31 to November 27.

Guillermo del Toro: At Home with Monsters will feature his personal collection of oddities, eccentricities, and just plain gross items. After its stint at LACMA, the exhibit will move on to the Minneapolis Institute of Art and the Art Gallery of Ontario. For now, watch the visionary filmmaker take you on a tour of his Bleak House in the video below.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

These skateboards look like something you'd want to hang on your wall than ride

If you're looking for the most artistic skateboards in town, then you just have to head to The Skateroom . They sell decks that feature the work of legendary artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Nobuyoshi Araki, and Ai Weiwei. Just recently, the company has teamed up with Vik Muniz to produce these beautiful decks that are true collector's items. They don't come cheap though. Each skateboard will set you back $350.

Bastiaan Buijs' Grandfather Clock might be the most beautiful vibrator ever

This glass dildo is powered by clockwork and delivers sleek and uncomplicated pleasure that takes you to climax in style. Called the Grandfather Clock, the sex toy is "super expensive" and is only available for the "rich and famous" at the moment – although designer Bastiaan Buijs is currently working on a cheaper version. While you may not be able to afford it, you can't deny that this is some serious addition to your collection. [h/t: Dezeen ]
