Virtual Despot

Edible Geography (one of the best blogs on the internet, hands down) recently clued me in to the existence of the Szpilman Award.  It’s an art prize awarded to works that exist “only for a moment or a short period of time.”

Above:

• Anna Gohmert lies under the Roman sun and gets a suitable sunburn.
• Péter Szabó lit fireworks and fired confetti-canons and smoke-machines for the workers who arrived early in the morning at factories and a bus-station in Romania and Hungary.
• Berndnaut Smilde produces a wonderful and well composed cloud in a room. 

More entries (and this year’s winner) on the Szpilman Award website.
