Catch Wonderwoman with her pants down, see Spiderman get really into dental hygiene and peep some hot hero on hero action in this series of posters by Greg Guillemin. Private moments. Big personalities. Voyeuristic crops. And they’re all for sale. Because waking up to Batman and Robin macking on your wall is an em-super-powering experience. […]
We had so much fun putting our faces into things with Overlayer from ANIMAL favorite OKFocus… But wait, there’s more. From artsits Pinar&Viola, DAZED and OKFocus, here’s a fresh new set of webcam filters, featuring some complex net art trompe-l’oeils to mug through. Uh, so, we had a lot of fun again … and you can too! There was a demon robot for Bucky, […]
New York-based artist Matthew Matthew‘s project On a Human Scale has already turned the faces in the crowds of New York City and Guadalajara into a singing parts of a giant musical instrument. There’s an individual for each note on the scale, projected on a gridded screen and connected to a hacked mini-piano… Watch them get played. For the […]
You are looking at a most exquisite pairing of lit city grids photographed from the International Space Station and neural networks imaged with fluorescence microscopy. The colossal, the minuscule the electric, the organic. They are the same. Something about fractals? Mind… blown. The duos assembled by Infinity Imagined should give you feelings, deep feelings of being one of a whole and […]
In 1993, Damien Echols, Jessie Misskelley Jr. and Jason Baldwin were convicted of grizzly torture, mutilation and murder of three prepubescent boys. There was no DNA evidence. The case was muddled with legal misconduct and overshadowed by the Evangelical Christian town’s Salem-style panic.

Digital artist Andy Willis creates the above beautiful collages by analyzing each second of a film for its most prominent hue, then displaying those colors on a 60-wide grid–turning iconic movies into abstract streams of color. His works, called “Spotmaps” are as functional as they are aesthetic: scanning the maps of the first three Die Hard films, […]
“Deathly warning, violent deaths, gentle death,” vintage autopsies, necro-romance, skulls skulls skulls, Goya, Dix, Dürer, more skulls… Ohh. The recently-opened exhibition “Death: A Self-portrait” is a inquiry/somber celebration of the cross-cultural obsession with death and its artistic presentations, from Adriaen van Utrecht’s 17th-century Vanitas: Still life with a bouquet and skull to contemporaries. Memento mori. Watch the trailer of the exhibition. […]
Though the story is as well-worn as any myth, the plot of the original Star Wars trilogy–spanning planets, and with a deep cast of characters–is epically complex. With his current exhibit at Los Angeles’s Gallery1988, Artist and mapmaker Andrew DeGraff seeks to plot the events of each film in as much detail as possible. This […]
ANIMAL’s feature Artist’s Notebook asks artists to show us their original idea sketch next to a finished piece. This week, NYC graffiti-bombing legend COPE2 shows us what a quick sketch of his wall piece looks like. I did this sketch pretty quick once I knew I was putting a wall together with several graffiti artists. If I’m just […]
“I was disappointed, to be honest. I have been waiting for it, like everybody else,” says Sunday Times art critic Waldemar Januszczak. And there it is. The portrait everybody’s been waiting for, allegedly. But “the Duchess of Cambridge is someone who we know likes art and was presumably going to be an enlightened patron!” And then, […]
