"The Rotterdam Zoo is giving away cardboard glasses that make it appear that you're looking off to one side; these are gorilla-viewing glasses, meant to avoid incidents in which gorillas attack visitors for making eye contact with them. The glasses' introduction follows an attack on a woman by an escaped gorilla; the specs are sponsored by a local health-insurance company."

Ron English.
"it's like being a sex addict and getting a job as a porn star.." (his comment on waking up and doing art everyday..)
I love ron english, if you're not familiar with him here's a quick video of him talking about some of his work.
20 Minutes With Ron English from Art and Design Films on Vimeo.
he does a lot of pop arty- political stuff. a lot on billboards. He also did a portrait during the election combining portraits of obama and lincoln. i'm pretty sure him and fairey and some other people collaborated with their political pieces during the election around new york or somewhere too..

crewdson & duchamp.
I'm researching Gregory Crewdson for my photo class and I'm totally blow away by his work. More so because I learned that Duchamp was one of his biggest influences. I didn't even know that this installation by Duchamp existed:

"Étant donnés"
It was an installation that he created out of mostly found or created objects and viewed through a peep hole.
Crewdson creates photographic images from scenes in his imagination, sometimes on site using real neighborhoods or designed in a studio. His earlier work was very diorama-esque but seemingly real.

His more recent work has become more eerily realistic. Always portraying a scene before or after an action, confusing and intriguing the viewer, but always very voyeuristic.

Crewdson's work becomes classified as more than just photography. Months of preparation go into these images, using equipment and people you'd often find on a film set. His scenes are living installations and sculptures all working towards an end result- one photo.
