Rice field art in Japan

I found this beautiful rice field artworks. By intermixing the purple and yellow-leafed kodaimai rice along with the green-leafed tsugaru-roman variety, imaginative farmers in rural Japan grow rice paddy artworks in their fields on a massive scale. According to Pink Tentacle, “In recent years, a growing number of local governments around Japan have started organizing rice paddy art projects as a way to attract tourists and educate people about rice farming.”
I like it:)

New work by Dan Witz

In the past few years much of my neighborhood in Brooklyn has been torn down to make way for luxury housing. For better or worse it's a whole new street-scape out here. Personally, I can't say I like the new modern architecture very much, it's sterile and so arrogantly disconnected with its surroundings sometimes it seems like giant alien space ships have landed in the night. But, at the very least, there's some interesting new textures and surfaces to interact with. These are photo-based, heavily re-painted stickers, mounted on plastic and glued to the walls of the Ugly New Buildings. I hit the Lower East Side and East Village in Manhattan, and Bushwick, Dumbo, Greenpoint and Williamsburg out here in Brooklyn.

conventional gallery. this year, the museum's outdoor court 'sunken garden' has been taken over by architect
kimihiko okada's aluminum installation. the metallic mass creates a scene which whose appearance
is altered by unpredictable weather and the passage of time.

Tonight opening Antoine Bouillot at Alice galery Brussels

Tonight is the opening of a show by French artist Antoine Bouillot at Alice in Brussels.

Cameron Jamie & The Melvins

Last night I went and saw Jamie Cameron & The Melvins perform at the Luxor theatre in Rotterdam during the International Filmfestival. It was a really cool crowd and I laughd so so much. The Melvins played the soundtrack to the three short films which were “BB”(2000), "Spook House" (2003), about Halloween in the Detroit suburbs, and "Kranky Klaus" (2003), which explores an Austrian Christmas custom with a satanic edge. "Every year on Dec. 5 and 6, Santa Claus comes and delivers gifts to people's homes, and he's accompanied by this kind of devil, which is called the Krampus," Mr. Jamie said. "Whoever is good gets a gift, and whoever is bad gets beaten. This duality - iconic figures of good and evil can work together - fascinated me. Especially coming from America, this Puritan culture, where the Devil and Santa would never be seen in the same room." Especially this last film was fantastic. I laughed so hard, it was so funny. Really happy and went and saw it!
