X-Ray Art

Posted by Orangeheat in Art

People love their skin art, and here is another way to show it off. The scar tissue lights up the needle’s path under a steady stream of radiation and makes for a haunting image. Would you like to frame your X-rayed tattoo? I think I would, but so far I remain tattoo-less.

These bad boys would look clinically modern backlit in your living room as objets d’ art. Who wants to start this business with me? Any takers, movers and shakers? What do they do with all the old X-rays of broken bones anyway?

Plate Glass Art

Posted by Orangeheat in Art, design

This is a great plate glass window that flashed the hood before it was junked! A failed restaurant briefly moved in and used a silhouette of the watusi girl on their menu as a nod to the history of the building. I think the place was called the auto bar in the olden days. I’m glad I snapped some pictures before the image was destroyed forever. If you know the name of the artist who painted this window please hit the comments button below the post and clue us all in. I like the graffiti beard on the girl it seems kinda perfect and the 7up sticker in the lower right corner.  The shattered glass adds a special touch also, moments before the dumpster strikes. Sometimes the past winks at you if you pay attention.

Art Barriers

Posted by Orangeheat in Art

These barriers caught my eye in NYC because they are much sexier than their concrete cousins. I was struck with the answer before the question as to how they stay put, they are full of water. Would Gyula Kosice regard these as hydrosculptures? If you were to T-bone one with your car would you be creating a hydrokinectic sculpture during impact?

Many questions abound like what happens to the water after they are done, and do you see a future like Gyula Kosice where art and science blur and we move into a utopian paradise in outer space.
