Filip Dujardin
"Filip Dujardin makes digital photo montages of impossible structures. In some, modernist buildings are stacked like towers of mislaid Jenga pieces, with cantilevered sections shooting out in every direction. Others show passageways leading nowhere, like Escher drawings made real. Each is meticulously constructed, teetering on the fine edge between reality and absurdity"
Nicholas Goodden Minimal Urban Photography
London photographer specialising in urban photography, street photography Nicholas Goodden has a lot of project to show on personal website but we selected the striking one featuring minimal urban shots.
Josef Hoflehner Photography
"Each of Hoflehner’s photographs achieves a perfection of composition that seems to defy the possibility that it could ever be seen any other way. Gripping in their ultimate solitude and the unexpected natural beauty they capture, Hoflehner's photographs take his earthly subject matter to raise it to an almost mythical level, defining the essence of the place. In these rare and elusive moments, the natural and the man made are brought together in a poetic interplay of light and shadow, emptiness and structure"

Sea Of Hull by Spencer Tunick
The streets of Hull (England) were transformed into an ocean of painted human flesh as 3,200 volunteers braved the North Sea chill to create an incredible spectacle. Called the Sea Of Hull, it was the biggest nude art installation Britain has ever seen and the brainchild of US photographer Spencer Tunick, who was impressed at how wholeheartedly his idea was embraced.

“In a time where we lose direct contact with nature, we accede to it only by the view.”

Floating Piers by Christo and Jean-Claude
“Perhaps one of the most famous artist couples of the 20th century, Christo and Jean-Claude have become synonymous with larger-than-life fabric installations that usually involve wrapping buildings, trees, even entire cliffs with cloth.”
The most recent Christo and Jean-Claude project to have been executed is an impressive installation of floating corridors covered with orange cloth in Lake Iseo, Italy. The pair’s first project to be completed after Jean-Claude passed away in 2009, “The Floating Piers” was conceived in the 1970’s and comprises a total of 5.5 kilometres of walkways, 3 km of which float on the water by means of specially-designed polyethylene cubes.

Colour Hunter Ramin Nasibov
Following the recent publication in the Guardian we reveal our latest favourite Instagram photographer and Berlin-based designer Ramin Nasibov.
“Berlin-based graphic designer Ramin Nasibov began photographing hidden patterns in buildings after he noticed pockets of colour hiding among the city’s grey skyline. “You won’t believe it, but colourful architecture can be found in any city,” he says. “Even the most well-known architectural sight can be shown from an absolutely new corner.” Originally from Baku, Azerbaijan, Nasibov cites the crisp and striking aesthetic of Wes Anderson as an inspiration. “The three key properties for me are minimalism, symmetry and vibrant colours. Capturing these elements allows people to see old buildings from a new perspective.”

Prisma - Artificial Intellect Art Application
Prisma AI App is a new addition to kicking Russian-built family of great mobile applications that merely started from Glitché and SLMMSK (Vladimir Shreyder, promoted by me at Digitized14 conf) that changed the canvas of digital contemporary art and even influenced the showbiz. Later Facebook bought another speedy Russian filter app MSQRD (Nick Davydov) that rocketed in app store in a matter of month. Few days ago a new wave of Instagram artistic make overs started to appear by the tag #prisma
Creation of a Russian team lead by Aleksey Moiseenkov Prisma transforms your photos into artworks using the styles of famous artists: Van Gogh, Picasso, Levitan, as well as world famous ornaments and patterns. A unique combination of neural networks and artificial intelligence (same algorithm as in Deep Dream technology) helps you turn memorable moments into timeless art.
Our friend and selected artist at Digital Decade 2016 - ARTISTMARK immediately took over the new app and created an awesome artwork we share below
