Culture Buzz Artist Felice Varini's installation in the town of Vercorin in the Swiss Alps is called Cercle et suite d'eclats. Varini projected the pattern onto the town from one angle, then painted over the projections, making the already kind of awesome town all circley-looking and therefore twice as awesome.
Multimedia performers, Sweatshoppe use a digital paint roller to project color lights and designs on city surfaces, creating a new style called video painting. All the art with none of the clean up!
Lebanese artist Ginou Choueiri makes real life potato heads. There's even one of ol' George W., which should finally give you the chance to stab the ex-Prez in the fork with an eye.
…if you're scared of clowns, which you probably are. Or else, this picture might just be really, really hilarious.
Argentinian street artist Blu has teamed up with artist David Ellis and is back with a new street art video called “COMBO”
If Van Gogh liked Maurice Sendak, he would've painted this. Also, WANT.
I always fall madly in love with New York Times artist Christoph Niemann's illustrated vignettes. This one focuses on sleeptime — touching everything from the cold pillow debate to the (blogger's) daytime nap.
Finally, a mascot both furries and grandmas can agree on. Merry XXXmas…from the beach!
And on the third day He touched my Bud and it was chilled. God bless you, NASCAR fans.

There is a particularly Philadelphian brand of hardy, low-budget, do-it-yourself, do-it-for-love creativeness evident in art and art spaces across the city.
Artist Kevin Cyr fashioned a “camper bike” — or a fully functioning RV perched on the back of a bicycle. Family vacation roadtrip (for one!)
Guerrilla artists Jason Eppink and Tyler Menzel have been putting up some alterations to the cross walk instructions in Los Angeles.
Chrissy Conant's “Chrissy Skin Rug” is either a charming ode to Silence of the Lambs, or a disturbing metaphor. I'll assume it's a metaphor, but I'd much rather imagine her saying to guests, “You see, it puts the carpet cleaner on its skin, and it looks as clean as ever!” [Update: Typo and bad grammar corrected - sorry!]
Butter doesn't just make everything you put it on taste delicious, it's also material for artistic creation — ready for viewing at county fairs across the country. Ironically, the beauty queens whose likeness are carved in butter probably avoid eating its fatty beauty at all costs.
Marilyn Minter made an 8 minute hi-def short film of models eating cake decoration off glass. “Green Pink Caviar” is creepy-sexy!
Just noticed Rob Corddry is butt-ass naked sitting on the foot from Lost in his Twitter icon. And he's a suggested user, which means your mom sees this. Twitter, you cool with that?
A skill you never know you could possibly have: a talented artist draws both Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman's faces at the same time, each with one hand, and along to some bumping techno music.
