It's art.

You may remember seeing an article on Artinfo Australia in December 2012 about a giant sculptural hot-air balloon by world-renowned Australian artist Patrica Piccinini that had been commissioned to celebrate the 100th birthday of Australia's capital city, Canberra. Well, the balloon dubbed the "Skywhale" has been revealed in all its glory and sent on its maiden voyage in preparation for the official unveiling in Canberra on May 11.

Now that, my friends, is how you art in the modern age.

It's a whale, it's a bird, it's a bunch of claws, it's pendulous tits...

I 'LIKE' THIS

[Cardinal Pizza Deliverance.]

"I imagine it against the clear blue canvas of a Canberra sky, odd yet somehow comforting," Piccinini said in her original vision for the commission. "It plays on the idea that the relationship between planning and nature can lead to outcomes that are extraordinary in ways that are unanticipated."

It may resemble what one person described on Facebook as a "10-titted dodo," but those who follow Piccinini's career will recognise the commission as a grand and wonderful continuation of her favourite theme of questioning our responsibility to the creatures we create.

See this is art I like.

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

We can troll the skies with giant mutant creatures with multiple fifty foot long titties now?

This really IS "oddly comforting".

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Yeah, I like this thing.

Speaking of art, Portland's latest thing is going to the art museum naked. June 8th, Portland Art Museum is partnering with the Naked Bike Ride by offering admission at a cost of $1 per article of clothing.

I'm going to go, because when will I ever have another opportunity to go to an art museum naked with a bunch of other naked people?

[LMNO]

I would love doing this, just to horrify people with my back hair.




Naturally, I would maintain an erection at all times.

Naturally, I would maintain an erection at all times.

I thought that was compulsory at art museums anyway?

[Suu]

Skywhales for a new tomorrow!

Hopefully, every year, forever.

I'm going.

Unfortunately, it isn't actually possible for me to be naked.

[Anna Mae Bollocks]

I wish I could say the same of Texas. This whole state needs to be covered in ass and back hair.
Not that we're really known for art museums or people you'd like to see naked or be naked with anyway.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Art museum full of naked hipsters.

It will be a busy night for me.

We don't do that sort of thing, here. 

It's almost like that money I spent on that cattle prod was wasted.
