Church/Kuadra Studio

 
( poems not in words, but space.and It's a beautiful poem)

Church
Kuadra Studio  Piacenza, Italy 
The concept for the design came from the idea of leaves: emphasizing the natural attachment to the earth and at the same time the spiritual detachment from it, creating a dynamic floating form to inspire worshipers with a material recreation of an ideal of the Church connecting earth and heaven.

奈良美智 Yoshitomo Nara

most works depict one seemingly innocuous subject (often pastel-hued children and animals drawn with confident,cartoonish lines) with little or no background. But these children, who appear at first to be cute and even vulnerable, sometimes brandishweapons like knives and saws. Their wide eyes often hold accusatory looks that could be sleepy-eyed irritation at being awoken from a nap—or that could be undiluted expressions of hate.

草間 彌生

Dots obsession

草間   彌生

Kusama's work is based in conceptual art and shows some attributes of feminism, minimalism, surrealism, Art Brut, pop art, and abstract expressionism, and is infused with autobiographical, psychological, and sexual content. Kusama is also a published novelist and poet, and has created notable work in film and fashion design. Major retrospectives of her work have been held at the Museum of Modern Art and Tate Modern, whilst in 2008 Christies New York sold a work by her for $5.1 million, a record for a living female artist.
