Danish artist MIKKEL S.ANDERSEN is probably crazy but I don’t care because he is creative. His universe is compelling and disturbing; innocent everyday objects are arranged in bizarre settings evoking joy, misery, humour, sarcasm, playfulness and bitterness.
I really dig his big homage to the six-pack canned beer as an aesthetically masterly object.

Rotterdam based artist RON VAN DER ENDE creates nothing short of spectacular wall mounted bas-reliefs. Each sculpture is assembled using hundreds of small pieces of found wood that are cut and nailed together to give the illusion of a three-dimensional object.
I collect old doors and stuff. Old painted wood that I find in the street. I take it apart and skin it to obtain a 3mm thick veneer with the old paint layers still intact. I construct bas-reliefs that I cover with these veneers much like a constructed mosaic. I do not paint them!
For my subjects I draw from everyday life and popular culture. I’m always on the lookout for interesting subjects. Things that have something important to say or that talk to what I call my “basic boyish enthusiasm”. - RON VAN DER ENDE for DiskursDisko.de
Personally I could die for one of those diamonds! Till then make sure to take a look at his blog and his website.

From May 20 to July 4, 2010, Fondazione Nicola Trussardi presented Pig Island, the first major solo show by American artist PAUL MCCARTHY.
Pig Island installation was a world premiere and has been mounted in the basement of the Palazzo Citterio in Milan. This building had remained closed for 30 years and was reopened for the exhibition.
Combining minimalism and performance, video and sculpture, MCCARTHY’s work transports visitors to a universe that combines Hollywood glamour with the dark side of the American dream; an extraordinary distortion and mutation of the familiar into something disturbing and carnivalesque. He became known in the 1970s for his visceral performances and film works but during the 1990s extended his practice into stand alone sculptural figures, installations and also a series of large inflatable sculptures.
For this exhibition he presented one of his most complex and ambitious works, Pig Island (the 2 last pictures), a giant sculpture that grew in the artist’s studio to fill over 100 square meters with a surreal anthology of the themes that have cropped up throughout his career. This piece is a work-in-progress that PAUL MCCARTHY has been developing for over seven years. He literally displays his studio, his workshop where he produces dreams, nightmares and fantasies. As we writes, “Pig Island is a baby factory: it makes sculpture, the sculpture goes off and than comes back. Producing sculpture as an industrial process.”
PAUL MCCARTHY was born in Salt Lake City in 1945 and now lives in Los Angeles.
