Another Plastic Brick In the Wall.

These are by one of a collective of 21 artists that did site specific work in a little European town. (Italy?)

No name was given for whichever individual did these in particular, and it might have been several. Still it's just amazing simple little pieces that just work so well. I always apreciate thoughtful yet unobtrusive public art, it's the sort of thing that makes the world a better place to live in.

Of course some people have a differen't opinion of what is considered unobtrusive than I.

The Single Most Influential Anything in My Entire Life.

LEGO.

Seriously, I would not be an artist today, not have an interest in Architecture, and Probably be a more grounded and rational person. (Heaven Forbid!) Spaceships, Pirates, Dinosaurs, Tall Ships, Planes, Trains, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Pulp Adventure, Submarines, Bi-Planes, Castles, Ninjas... I mean honestly, What they Haven't covered that I love would probably be either impossible or inappropriate for LEGO.



So on that note i give you this. (you can click on pretty much any image i post to see them bigger by the way) It's a multilayered onion of awesome. there are so many tiny details, like the ninja vs. pirate rivalry in the ships rigging, or The Feral Jar Jar Binks & co. charging some (French?) Riflemen.
