If you want someone to come tidy your apartment, we think we have found your man in Michael Johansson, an artist who takes a real-life Tetris approach to both public and fine art. The artist has a knack of compartmentalizing the right objects into the right spaces to create incredible collages of no longer used goods in a colorful, eye-popping way. The artist is busy with public art work in Malmo, Sweden, as well as a museum show in Oslo coming up, so we wanted to look at some newer works.

Born in 1980 in Oslo, Norway, the artist and illustrator Sail currently  lives and works on the top of a hill near the sea and tends to keep to himself. His dramatic, gestural illustrations are full of heavy contrasted emotion and some of his clients include Sprint, Random House and Soft Skull Press. Beautiful work.

Solitaire “Win” Screen Sculpture http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/solitaire-win-screen-sculpture http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/solitaire-win-screen-sculpture Solitaire “Win” Screen Sculpture
Clever stuff. Oslo, Norway's Lars Marcus Vedeler and Theo Tveterås created a three-dimensional sculpture of the "win" screen on Windows Solitaire. It only took over 1,000 3D playing cards to make it happen... but it was worth it.

These are all amazing. Norwegian artist, Fredrik Raddum, creates plastic sculptures, all featuring bizarre, sinister, and humorous situations and characters. The Oslo-based artist has dozens and dozens of these sculptures, but we just focus on a few here.
