Replaced Mona Lisa is Mike Ruiz latest work. He selected the Mona Lisa, the girl, inside Photoshop and used the tool Content-Aware Fill to create the missing parts of the background. The resulting image is a potential landscape as interpreted by the software. The image was sent to an painting manufacturer in China where an oil painting was produced.

L017 is Angelo Bramanti and Giuseppe Siracusa and they prefer the use of waste materials and recycled objects to create their artworks. For their “Through The Barricades” piece they’ve used vinyl records. I quite like it but I’m not sure about the frame.
12:31 is a photographic series by Croix Gagnon and Frank Schott. In 1993, a convicted murderer was executed. His body was given to science, segmented, and photographed for research. Croix and Frank used that footage to create these 7 photographs. An animation of the 1871 slices was played fullscreen on a computer, which was moved around by an assistant while being photographed in a dark environment. The resulting images are long-exposure “light paintings” of the entire cadaver. Stunning work! Prints are for sale for $700 and all proceeds benefit Amnesty International.

“Stiletto: a Tale of Action and Response” by Markus Fielder is a life-size knife made of beeswax.
In 1977/1978 Anton Perich built a painting machine, an early giant paintjet printer. Since then he’s been making these amazing Machine Painting. I really like them. You can see one of his machines in action in the video below.

Sun can’t see the light by Francoise Gamma.
The digital canvas is my canvas of choice. Kim Si Nae thinks so too and made a series of Browser Abstracts. The artworks are made inside a web browser, java applets are loaded inside frames. They aren’t just static compositions but each frame flickers nervously. You can see 2 examples here.

Dan Tague knows how to fold his bills. The Euro bills are just boring compared to these Dollar ones.
