Some inspirations of the day

Fake pool

I'nitially conceived of 12 years ago, the 'fake' swimming pool by Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich, known for his illusion-like installations, has been featured at various museums around the world. In 2001, it was featured at the 49th Venice Biennale in Arentina. In 2004, it found a permanent home at the 21st Century Art Museum in Kanazawa, Japan. In 2008, the fake pool was set up for a 2 year installation at MoMA's PS1 Contemporary Art Center. And as of December 2010, the pool was being installed in the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane, Australia.'

Painting the streets of Berlin

'Last year, pranksters led by Dutch performance artist Iepe B.T. Rubingh road their bicycles into a crowded intersection in Berlin and unloaded 500 liters of brightly-colored paint onto the concrete, effectively turning passing cars, buses and bikes into unwitting paintbrushes (as well as accomplices). Entitled “Painting Reality,” the video above showcases the beginning of this self-proclaimed case of guerilla street art as well as the final result created by the color-injected traffic.'
