Adam Niklewicz loves the humorous irritation, a piece of sausage that is shaped into the sign of infinity as well as an orange oil paint on a piece of bread or a curling wave that gathers in the midst of a calm carpet ready to break.

A sculpture that gets my special attention on these warm days is a giant melting ice cream van, entitled »Hot With The Chance of Late Storm« created by The Glue Society. Exhibited at Sculpture by the Sea, Sydney 2006.

Markus Linnenbrink was commissioned to paint the visitors tunnel at the new JVA (prison) in Düsseldorf, Germany. »Visitor access (for family, lawyers, police…) has to be under ground by law in newly constructed prisons in Germany. This tunnel covers the 40 m (about 132 feet) between the security check in the front building and the visitors area in one of the inner prison buildings«, it says on the website.

Feldaufnahmen von knackenden Ästen, Laub und heranrauschenden Ostseewellen verabreichen »A Forest« seine organische Architektur. Und die Gesänge von Mohna und Gry Nœhr Bagøien! Schön.
Elliphant – »In The Jungle« directed by Bill Schumacher. Policemen who escort a wildly gesticulate techno child in a trolley, rocking Santas who overrun them right in the middle of the clip and a number of strange interludes – In my opinion, one of the best clips of this season so far.
