One dollar origami

Origami is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. The goal of this art is to create a representation of an object using geometric folds and crease patterns preferably without the use of gluing or cutting the paper, and using only one piece of paper.

Won Park is the master of Origami. He is also called the "money folder", a practitioner of origami whose canvas is the United States One Dollar Bill.

Bending, twisting, and folding, he creates life-like shapes in stunning detail.

Le Jardin des Capteurs

My agricultural designs are found where art is least expected...

My work revolves around human activity in various landscapes, integrating artistic creation into a production process, to surprise and stimulate the actors and spectators of the landscapes.

All of the technical parameters of the activity on a given landscape are included in the designs, for example, those of farming, a garbage dump or runways of an airport. I work within the parameters to create designs. My designs are made with plants, therefore, they are constantly changing with time. Jean Paul Ganem

Old new(s)






Many have seen these ruins. It's to me really an art. The photographers Yves Marchand and Romain Meffre have taken many of these kind of shots that snap the beautiness of old houses, opera's and classrooms.

Hoe communiceert de stad de openbare groene ruimte



tot 08/08/2010 Kunstliefde

In het tijdperk van nieuwe begrippen zoals Guerilla Gardening, Schaamgroen, Balkonmoestuinen en Vertical Gardens, lijkt groen een steeds prominentere steunkleur te worden in de stad.
De expositie Steunkleur Groen brengt deze ontwikkeling in beeld en toont de eigenwijze kracht van de natuur.
In de expositie gaat het huiselijk groen soms letterlijk op stap en breekt uit om de stad te ontdekken. Het twittert erop los. Ontmoet elkaar op Facebook of FourSquare. Ook is het groen soms een (on)bedoeld sieraad, een verstilde verbeelding of een manier om ideeën en dromen letterlijk uit te laten komen.
