Huffington Post: Gosia Wlodarczak's 'Room Without A View' Shows What Happens When An Artist Spends 17 Days In A Box (PHOTOS)

Posted: 06 Jul 2013 08:28 PM PDT

What would you do if you were trapped inside a dark box for 17 days straight?

The answer for Gosia Wlodarczak would be to draw, as evidenced by her recent display at RMIT Gallery in Melbourne. The Polish artist spent nearly two and a half weeks packaged inside a sensory limitation cube (otherwise known as a giant black box), embarking on a self-imposed challenge to sketch everyday from 10:30 AM to 5 PM with as little exposure to the outside world as possible.

The entire adventure, titled "A Room Without A View", was documented via webcam, allowing audiences to spy on Wlodarczak's daily happenings as she stood, sat and stooped inside her cube. Of course, her activities consisted almost entirely of drawing on the walls of her temporary sanctuary, creating a frenzied, cross-stitched design all around her, meant to represent what she "saw" while in the dark enclosure.

Huffington Post: Marc Chagall Birthday: Celebrating The Dreamy Work Of An Expressionist Great (PHOTOS)

Posted: 06 Jul 2013 08:28 PM PDT

In honor of Marc Chagall's birthday, we are revisiting a post originally published last year honoring the artist's life and work.

Today marks the birthday of one of the art world's most beloved Marcs -- Marc Chagall. The painter reached the hearts and imaginations of people worldwide with his expressive paintings that simultaneously harnessed the spirit of the avant-garde and the warmth of tradition. As Michael Kimmelman wrote in The New York Times: "the young Chagall had one foot in the modern world, his other in the shtetl." The talented soul would turn 126 if he were still with us today.

Chagall was born in the then-Russian neighborhood of Liozna (present day Belarus). As the oldest of nine children, Chagall grew up in a tight-knit Hasidic Jewish family where tradition played a heavy role. The mystical nature of Hasidic Judaism is evident in Chagall's imagery all throughout his life. Starry night skies, dancing ghosts and skywalking fiddlers populate Chagall's mythology, somewhere between religion and surrealism. Thus he was beloved by both, seemingly disparate, populations. He was a storyteller, dreamer and colorist that many different audiences could believe in.

Huffington Post: Jimmie Johnson Sweeps 2013 Daytona Races, Avoids Crash At End Of Coke Zero 400 (PHOTOS)

Posted: 06 Jul 2013 08:57 PM PDT

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- A flawless race gave Jimmie Johnson a perfect year at Daytona International Speedway and put him on another exclusive list.

Johnson became the first driver in 31 years to sweep Daytona International Speedway, accomplishing the feat with a dominating run Saturday night for his fourth win of the season. The Daytona 500 winner is the first driver since Bobby Allison in 1982, and the fifth overall, to win both races in a season at Daytona.

"I don't think I made a bad move tonight. I'm pretty proud of that," Johnson said. "Gosh, growing up in Southern California and watching Bobby Allison ... to do anything Bobby has done is pretty special."
