What Marco Mazzoni can do with coloured pencils on a moleskine sketchbook is pretty amazing. The Modenese artist has a taste for delicate, very detailed renders and intricate compositions of small animals and mystical women. In his women portrait series, he chooses not to paint the eyes, which he sees as a distraction, thus infusing [...]

Anyone who thinks they can simply lie down briefly on a public bench is already being sabotaged: the benches are deliberately too short for this, or the public benches are being interrupted by ‘comfortable’ armrests. Into our obsession with control and security and what that can ultimately derail comes Nadia Kaabi-Linke’s impressive artwork, Parkverbot (looted art). It [...]

I discovered Claudia Rogge two years ago. She is a German artist and photographer whose bodies collection creates a wide range of artistic human patterns. One of her cycle of works is inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy and illustrates Hell, Purgatory and Paradise in her personal vision. These images remind me of the atmosphere of [...]

Rembrandt van Gogh or Vincent van Rijn is the theme of this collage by Amsterdam graphic designer Jeroen Huijbregts. This perfect symbiosis of Van Rijn and Van Gogh goes beyond just a physical analogy. Vincent van Gogh adored Rembrandt.

Joram Roukes is a talented contemporary artist from the Netherlands. His main medium is large scale oil paintings, which tend to be collage-like compositions mashing up the figurative with animals and western pop icons.

Michael Wolf, whose works we just can’t get enough of, has a fairly new series focusing on makeshift chairs in China and Hong Kong. Endearingly dubbed ‘bastard chairs’ thanks to their questionable origins, these snapshots show a lot of spunk and personality from their unseen makers.
