POPSArt on Wheels: The Magnificent Truck Art of Pakistan Beautiful, ornate artwork moving about the roads of Pakistan. "Jamal Elias breaks down the motifs for truck art into the following 5 categories: 1. Idealized elements of personal and communal life. 2. Elements of political and national life. 3. Talismans, trinkets, and clothing. 4. Talismans or religious symbols. 5. Obvious religious symbols and images." "Unlike vanity plates and ‘pimp-my-ride’ style modifications, Pakistani truck art is about cultural history and tradition, storytelling, passion, and sometimes playful one-upsmanship.'

POPSBodyworks: art of the corpse I was lucky enough to see the exhibition in London five or so years ago. Enhancing, uplifting and beautiful. Think there is an exhibition in Manchester UK on now.

POPSReverse Graffiti The Brazilian artist’s work came to a happier resolution. The authorities were certainly miffed but could find nothing to charge him with. They had no other recourse but to clean the tunnel — but only the parts Alexandre had already cleaned. The artist merely continued his campaign on the other side of traffic. The utterly flummoxed city officials then decided to take drastic action. Not only did they clean the entire tunnel but also every other tunnel in Sao Paulo. Bravo!

POPSDiscussing the Divine Comedy with Dante You've probably seen this painting on the Web before. But this is the first time I've seen it with its full name. Plus, this website has links to every charcter that shows to his or her biography on Wikipedia. Brilliant idea.
