Chinese-French artist Huang Yong Ping designed this awesome aluminum snake installation, entitled Ressort, for the Queensland Art Gallery in Australia for the 2012 Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art (APT). APT is the gallery’s “flagship contemporary art event and the only major exhibition series to focus exclusively on the contemporary art of Asia, the Pacific and Australia.”

With beautiful silver vertebrae and ribs extending sinuously from ceiling to floor and spanning 53 metres (nearly 174 feet) across the gallery’s Watermall, Ressort was the centerpiece for APT 7.

“‘Ressort’ is French for ‘spring’, and can also mean energy or resilience, and the snake skeleton coils from the roof to the floor, as if coming down from the sky, with its skull floating just above the water. The coiled snake or dragon, a central figure in Chinese mythology since ancient times, is traditionally associated with water; the snake also represents knowledge and wisdom. The snake/dragon is also a key figure in other cultures, appearing in the Garden of Eden in the Bible, as the Naga in Southeast Asia, as the foe to Beowulf or Saint George in Anglo–Saxon mythology, and as the Rainbow Serpent in Australian Aboriginal culture. It is alternatively a symbol of fear, creation, desire, deception or good luck.”

Karma: A Tower of Blinded Men Rising into the Sky by Do Ho Suh

Towering 23 feet (7 meters) into the sky, Karma is a recent sculpture installed in the Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden at the New Orleans Museum of Art by Korean sculptor Do Ho Suh (previously). Captured here in a series of photographs by Alan Teo, the piece depicts a tower of piggy-backed men, each successively covering the eyes of the man below him, creating an illusion that the blinded tower seems to stretch to infinity like a fractal, although technically it was made from 98 cast stainless steel figures. The artist is known for his work with multiple figures, creating tornadoes, chain link fences, and frequently multiple small figures supporting the weight of what appears to be a pair of corporate or governmental shoes. A smaller broze version of Karma is also on view at the Albright Knox Museum in Buffalo. (via my modern met, alan teo)

I love watching Face Off on Syfy. Anthony (from Chicago!) and Eric are also my favorite contestants. Creative, experienced, and impressive.

skwirelygurli:

Let’s take a second, or a minute, or whatever amount of time floats your boat (or powers your scooter for all you landlubbers) to appreciate the talent of these two Face Off contestants. You go Anthony and Eric! (And by go, I mean keep being awesome. Please don’t go away.)

Known as Polychaetes (bristle worms), they survive intense sea pressures where sunlight never penetrates.
