This may not fully be what you would consider "art art," but sometimes you just need to stop and watch what the Internet has to offer you, and sometimes you have to wonder what you would be doing had the Internet not come and see what these two guys would be doing. Probably not making stop-motion "Insert Coin" videos. Watch after the jump . . .
There hasn't been an artist over the past month that we have heard more about than Wes Lang. Wes isnt a newcomer by any means, it just seems that more and more people are beginning to gravitate to his work. His drawing, One In A Million (2008), remains one of our favorite works.

In honor of our Cory Arcangel feature in the January 2011 issue of Juxtapoz, we look back at Arcangel's first installation piece that put him on our map. In 2005, he created the Super Mario Movie, a 15-minute installation short, a reorganization of an old Nintendo cartridge of Super Mario Brothers. Videos after the jump . . .
Siobhan McClure, currently showing at Richard Heller Gallery with Driven Into Paradise: The Tale of Pearl, creates work with oil on canvas over panel. Her subject matter is children, with the current series regarding "fragments from an epic narrative of the flight and survival of small, isolated bands of children escaping the destruction of a city."

We just received images from Herbert Baglione's new exhibition at Winterlong Galerie in Niort, France. As we have seen in previous Baglione exhibitions, he continues to utilize both installation, mural, and paintings into each show, creating both abstract and figurative works.

Thomas Campbell's signature chacracters, if we should call them that, were the centerpiece of our sold out April 2007 newsstand cover with the artist (you can still get the subscriber). Now the multi-dimensional, multi-talented Thomas Campbell just directed this FUEL TV Signature Series ID of his famed characters running through the forest and hitting an estuary.

Dan Brown was onto something, it just might not have been the right thing, and who needs a fact-checker? But the Mona Lisa may in fact have some secrets behind her eyes. Italian researcher Silvano Vinceti claims there are letters written within both eyes of the famed Lisa. More information after the jump . . .
You could be struggling with holiday ideas. Yesterday we mentioned the new Barry McGee book as a pre-order alternative, and now, we go in a similar direction with this collaborative lithograph through Edition Copenhagen of REAS, TWIST, and AMAZE. Only 65 were made, so this is a limited, limited edition piece. More after the jump . . .
Fresh off of two fantastic photography exhibits at SFMoMA that we visited last month comes a new photography exhibit of note at NYC's MoMA, titled Staging Action Performance in Photography Since 1960. The 50 photos from the collection of MoMA in the exhibit focus upon the staging in the absence of a public audience. More information after the jump . . .
We saw that Curated posted a great, classic video of Steve Olson today, and we were thinking about Steve's new show with his son Alex that is opening at Known Gallery this Saturday, and remembered a great video with Steve that we watched as research last year. Video after the jump . . .
