3D paintings (These are not real Goldfish!)

Yes, unbelievable but true. What you look at here is not a photograph of goldfish in a bucket. This is actually three dimensional picture created by painted layers of resin.

The artist Riusuke Fukahori spents an incredible amount of effort on creating his artworks. The technique is similar to that of a 3D printer, where each added layer reveals a little bit more about the object.

This in my eyes is true and utter genius.

Watch this video to see the master at work.

Boring Room+1000s Children+1000s Stickers=WOOOW!!!

So, you feel like your room looks a bit plain? Why don't you invite a few thousand children, give them thousands and thousands of little coloured stickers and let them spice up your boring space a bit?

Well that's pretty much what Yayoi Kusama did in the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art. The installation is called the Obliteration Room and is part of the Look Now - See Forever project and is running until March. So hurry hup and get your little ones or maybe even yourself down there and post a sticker.

What does music LOOK like?

That's the question German artist Martin Klimas asked himself. And guess what, he might have found the answer. It just took him 1000 shots on his Hasselblad, a few blown speakers and more than 80 litres of paint to find out.

The paint was placed on top of the speakers and then frantically stimulated to vibrate and jump by music of artists like Miles Davis and Kraftwerk.

Did music ever look better? I think not.

Big Bubbles in Berlin

Wow. I just love seeing art projects that instantly hit me on lods of different levels. I mean look at this! Have you ever seen anything like it? The scale, the dreamy world it puts you in, the tactile and unique sensatory feeling of lying on supergiant plastic bubble. These spheres were supposed to resembled nature - they interacted with each other, so for example when you made one vibrate all the others would vibrate too.

Well, maybe you have seen it before if you were lucky enough and went to Berlin's Hamburger Bahnhof Museum of Contemporary Art until January 15 where Argentinian artist Tomas Saraceno exhibited his Cloud Cities project. I clearly missed my chance.

But you can read much more here if you too have never seen it before. Cloud Cities by Tomas Saraceno
