From German design agency, Jung von Matt: "We designed special bowling balls together with famous spraygun artist Oliver Paass that look like cut-off heads. For more than three weeks he made detailed 360° layouts that were sprayed on standard bowling balls. In several German bowling alleys we swapped the standard balls for these special ones."

Famous Artists and Their Cats http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/famous-artists-and-their-cats http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/famous-artists-and-their-cats Famous Artists and Their Cats
Well, we should have known. We, or I should say I because I am speaking only for myself, used to think maybe I shoudn't tell the masses that I own a cat, but seeing that Dali, Warhol, Matisse, O'Keefe, Picasso, Kahlo, Weiwei, Klimt, Klee, Gorey and others all loved their cats, I no longer feel ashamed. Its a cat union party up in here. Thank you Flavorwire for grabbing this collection.

Portraits Made by Injecting Bubble Wrap with Paint http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/portraits-made-by-injecting-bubble-wrap-with-paint http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/portraits-made-by-injecting-bubble-wrap-with-paint Portraits Made by Injecting Bubble Wrap with Paint
New York-based artist Bradley Hard injects each individual bubble of a piece of bubble wrap with acrylic paint to create these portraits. As the paint is injected into the bubbles, excess paint will drip down the back. He surgically removes these from the backside of the plastic to reveal an impression of the work.

Somewhere on the Internet... http://www.juxtapoz.com/erotica/somewhere-on-the-internet http://www.juxtapoz.com/erotica/somewhere-on-the-internet Somewhere on the Internet...
Can we please just give it up for the Internet one time?? If it wasn't for this infinitely vast void of knowledge, bad photo-shopping, bizarre trending jokes and some of the strangest imagery I've ever seen, life would be, well, exactly as it was before. Thank you for allowing me to witness things that may not have been possible if you didn't exist. Thank you Internet. Thanks for the weird erotica too.

The LEGO Brick Ice Tray http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/the-lego-brick-ice-tray http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/the-lego-brick-ice-tray The LEGO Brick Ice Tray
Entertain your Super Bowl party/Academy Awards guests (or guest, maybe you keep it low key) with something a little more arty this year. We suggest going LEGO, as in LEGO ice cube blocks in yer whiskey and... er, in your Coke or ice water. Make 10 at a time, build yourself a good evening.

Stay Puft S'more by Brad Hill http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/stay-puft-smore-by-brad-hill http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/stay-puft-smore-by-brad-hill Stay Puft S'more by Brad Hill
Well this is just silly, and by silly we mean near genius and amazingly crafted. Brad Hill took a stab at the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man in S'more form, and to us, this is a home run. Not sure if you want to eat this after, because when you make something like this, you sort of want to stare at it. And blog it. And Facebook it. Then Instagram it. Then maybe eat it after you tweet about it. That would be our order of operations.

Pipe Cleaner Eroticism by Don Porcella http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/pipe-cleaner-eroticism-by-don-porcella http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/pipe-cleaner-eroticism-by-don-porcella Pipe Cleaner Eroticism by Don Porcella
NYC artist Don Porcella creates erotic (and non-erotic too) sculptures and installations using "low-brow" materials like pipe-cleaners and wax. The recipient of many prizes and fellowships, Porcella aims to poke fun at the absurdities of consumer culture and the human condition through comically awkward and decidedly unsexy nudes.

Halloween Edition: Cereal Mascots by Guillermo Fajardo http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/halloween-edition-cereal-mascots-by-guillermo-fajardo http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/halloween-edition-cereal-mascots-by-guillermo-fajardo Halloween Edition: Cereal Mascots by Guillermo Fajardo
Because it's Halloween, we are still trying to help you with costume ideas. From Guillermo Fajardo, "I've always wondered what if the characters from our favorite cereal boxes were actual real life moving and dramatic creatures. So I chose my four favorite characters to join me this adventure: CAP'N, TONY, TRIX and the COUNT."

Gender Bending Male Movie Stars http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/gender-bending-male-movie-stars http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/gender-bending-male-movie-stars Gender Bending Male Movie Stars
In a recent article on What's Hot, What's Not, Frieze Magazine mentioned inhabiting a transgendered space as grounds for an art practice that is hot right now. While this series of photoshopped images likely does not fit the kind of transgendered space Frieze is thinking of, it still occupies a strange and emasculating view on some of the more recognizable male faces of Hollywood.

The Horse Head Pillow Case http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/the-horse-head-pillow-case http://www.juxtapoz.com/current/the-horse-head-pillow-case The Horse Head Pillow Case
Somewhere, Mario Puzo is very proud of the Horse Head Pillow Case. For those of you that love the Godfather, you know that this is a fun revenge-light gag gift. But for those of you who may be dealing with someone who doesn't know the Godfather, this may ruin a first date and, um, trip to the bedroom.
