Funny Collages by Barry Kite

Barry Kite is an American artist who diverts the famous masterpieces of classical painting to create funny compositions featuring the Mona Lisa, Vincent van Gogh or the Girl with a pearl. Between visual sampling, repositioning and parody, the collages of Barry Kite create an unlikely encounter between art history and Internet memes, exploring the modern and unbridled exploitation of images in our contemporary societies. Barry Kite‘s creations are available on the website of his studio Aberrant Art.

(120/365) A song you like by a band whose name you don’t: In the age of the internet, it is incredibly difficult to find information on a band named Frank Jordan, although it’s easier than it used to be. What’s worse, is no one in the band is named Frank Jordan, it’s just a name they picked that sounded cool to them. I know I’ve ranted about this before, but I think they should have been more popular.

It Ain’t Easy – Long Beach Dub Allstars “I’m becoming a better man because I’m losing you.”
