They will be having an exhibition soon so if you like what you see, watch this space and i'll let you know where and when. To see a few more click here

//Banksy Releases Official Movie Poster

Artist 'Banksy' is releasing his first film, 'Exit Through The Gift Shop'. Unfortunately it isn't coming to Australia for a while, but if you happen to be in New York on Friday 16th of April you're in luck. Love his one sheet poster featured above.

//Hyper realistic body paint

Great new art form which takes painting to a whole new 3d level.

//Anyone lost a pair of glowing shoes?

These glowing shoes have been spotted around town in Richmond, Virginia, USA. The shoes are hung like ordinary shoes that are thrown over a power line, only these are only found in bare trees.

Each shoe has a small solar panel attached to the heel and they come alive as the sun goes down. The light that glows from within also flickers like a campfire. Every pair seen is a pair of mens, black dress shoes.

No one knows who is creating them but about 12 pairs have been spotted so far. How bizarre...

Superman SOLD

A rare copy of the first comic book featuring Superman has sold for $US1 million ($NZ1.42m), smashing the previous record price for a comic book.

A 1938 edition of Action Comics No. 1, widely considered the Holy Grail of comic books, was sold from a private seller to a private buyer, neither of whom released their names. The issue features Superman lifting a car on its cover and originally cost 10 cents.

The previous comic book record was set last year when John Dolmayan, drummer for the rock band System of a Down, paid $317,000 (NZ$451,000) for an Action Comics No. 1 issue.

There are only about 100 copies of Action Comics No. 1 believed to be in existence, and only a handful have been rated so highly. It's rarer still for those copies to be made available for sale.
