Space, Art And Music.

I am a fan of all three.

Who can forget the music from 2001 a space odyssey?  The images, technology, but the music made everything so real and visceral.

The Art Vinyl company created the award 2004 and lets the public vote for their favorite album art.

This past years award went to Michael Kagan for his 2010 work titled Pilot 2 that was used on the cover of White Lies’ Big TV album.

Other space related album art has won in the past.  In 2010, the Klaxons’ album Surfing the Void won for its cat in an astronaut suit album cover.  I’m not sure if it really qualifies as space related, but hey, its a cat in a space suit.

It could have been Catanauts and Dogonauts, just as long as everyone gets along.  Check out the Dogonauts kickstarter page here.

SPACE!

This post is specifically for my niece Jennifer (she is an artist, and a good one at that).  Anyway, the title of this post is also the name of a new art exhibit here in California.

The show is being held at Gallery 1988: West.

Opening the show opening had special guest Bobak Ferdowsi, a NASA systems engineer at JPL who is best known as “Mohawk Guy” after he was captured with his star spangled Mohawk during Curiosities landing on Mars.  Let’s face it, he does rock the look.

The show runs through Saturday, July 20, closing on the 44th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing.  So if you are in the area, check it out, you might end up with some new artwork for your home or office.

Magic Art Special Exhibition Of China

The 2012 Magic Art Special Exhibition Of China was held at the Hangzhou Peace International Exhibition and Conference Center in the city of Hangzhou. The exhibition is an interactive art gallery. Unlike the typical museum or gallery where people just view the exhibits from a distance, visitors to this exhibit are encouraged to touch the paintings and add your own unique expression making the art one of a kind for everyone.  The exhibition ran from July 1 through August 6th.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures.  I liked them all, but I must say that it seems a lot of people envision themselves with their heads up an animals ass, but what do I know.
