Dismaland Bemusement Park: So on the back of its opening, Banksy has released the official trailer for his Dismaland Bemusement Park art installation which highlights several pieces Banksy curated from more than fifty artists around the world, collectively providing a dark and decayed view of theme parks and commercial recreation. Love it!! 🙂
Ash vs Evil Dead: STARZ has released an awesome new trailer for Ash vs Evil Dead, a new original series and horror sitcom sequel to the Evil Dead movies. The trailer features Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) taking on evil with his trusty boomstick and various other weapons. Ash vs Evil Dead is set to premiere on 31st October, 2015. Check it out below 🙂
Dismaland: So we lost our shit when we saw street artist Banksy had finally unveiled Dismaland, a satirical group exhibition inspired by Disneyland. Dismaland brings together many artists from around the world in a giant parody of our consumer society as seen through a trashy, decaying theme park. After rumours and first photos began popping up on the web, the Dismaland project released an official website presenting a map of the park, but also the list of artists including Damien Hirst, Josh Keyes, Escif, Axel Void, Brock Davis, Espo, Mike Ross and of course Banksy. The Dismaland exhibition, located in the Weston-super-Mare in the UK, is open from 22nd August until 27th September 2015. Amazeballs! – LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE 🙂
David Lynch: In 1968, director David Lynch created the short film ‘The Alphabet’, a bizarre and slightly terrifying recitation of the ABCs that seems to invoke and reflect an extreme fear of learning. This work is very interesting and helps reiterate David Lynch as a true artist in every sense. Definitely worth a watch.
The Muppets: We have been cracking up all morning over this awesome video by AnimalRobot where Fozzie Bear and Kermit the Frog sing ‘Express Yourself’ by NWA. The video was created using footage from The Muppet Movie and the web series Fozzie’s Bear-ly Funny Fridays. LOVE LOVE LOVE it and very clever indeed! 🙂
Balls: Inspired by the athleticism and sports-loving nature of Australians, digital artist Mimi Leung started thinking about the huge variety of balls-related games out there, made a list of types of balls and set that list to music. She then took this idea and developed an animated video, hand drawn, frame by frame, for the song which focuses on speed, fluidity and…well…balls! This is awesome, enjoy! 🙂
K. Henderson: We love these hyperrealist paintings by American artist K. Henderson, who pays tribute to her childhood with still lifes composed of vintage toys, books, board games and comics, mainly from pop culture of the 60s and 70s. Awesome work! 🙂
Teletubbies: We LOVE the Teletubbies performing “I Fink You Freeky” by Die Antwoord in the latest awesome edit by Robert Jones. Happy Friday, everyone! 🙂
The Hateful Eight: The Hateful Eight, starring Kurt Russell and Jennifer Jason Leigh, is the eighth feature film by director Quentin Tarantino about a group of dangerous bounty hunters trapped together in post-Civil War Wyoming. The first official trailer features a number of actors from Tarantino’s earlier films returning to work with him again including Samuel L. Jackson, Tim Roth, and Michael Madsen. Looks great, check it out below 🙂
Ta7rich: We love the funny and very cute illustrations of Ta7rich, a Tunisian illustrator who likes to imagine the little adventures of everyday objects in some offbeat and humorous situations. Great stuff! 🙂
