We don’t expect to post much before January, but please feel free to send in Artonot suggestions if you find something quirky, so that we have some material to look over and post for when we get back from break 
Got nothing to do over Christmas? Why not check out some Art Museums for inspiration?!
The Lafayette Building in downtown Detroit is about to get demolished. A lot of art (or not) will, unfortunately, have to go down with it. See for yourself. Is this stuff worth keeping around? If yes, then at what cost?
A fellow Midwesterner Bill Hall is rediscovering a latent talent later in life. Original story by the Des Moines Register. I guess it’s never too late to start doodling, and get in touch with your inner artist! Way to go, Bill!
“He joined the Army, went to college, then got a master’s degree, became a partner in one of America’s most successful accounting firms, wrote a book on ethics in business and, a couple of years ago, moved to Iowa to be near his son.”

Glass Microbiology exhibition by Luke Jerram, currently on display in Tokyo.
Swine flu, SARS, and HIV virus sculptures up close. Eww…
So? Art or not? What’s the verdict?
5 million dollars for this thing right here. I wonder if that even deserves to be called a work of art. But who am I to judge. I guess economy and the banking sector are turning around after all!
I hope we can all agree that performing arts is still an art… sort of. But does THIS qualify? A recent Mirror article covered “artistic cycling” which reminds me of figure skating, on bikes! It’s an activity that seems to be somewhat popular in Asia. I wouldn’t call this a type of art per se, but you be the judge. The video below is very relevant, showing an artistic cycling performance from the tenth annual Asian Indoor Cycling Championship. Two guys, two bikes, and a lot of riding around. Cool? Yes. Artistic? I don’t think so…
Some pictures of indoor artistic cycling here:
Never seen anything like this before, but looks pretty awesome. Creating images using the shadows of ordinary, unrelated objects and forms. The artist is Kumi Yamashita.
