The Mid-century design, Bentwood inspired chair, with its seat covered in an exclusive image of Ryan Gosling photographed by Jennifer Graylock is signed and numbered, and sells for just $950!

Thanks to Neatorama for the tip!

This cool face sculpture comprised of found objects was spotted attached to a No Parking Sign on West 20th Street across from the Jonathan LeVine Gallery. This fun sculpture is the work of artist Rae from Brooklyn. See more of Rae’s art and read a few interviews with him by Googling “Street Artist Rae Brooklyn.”
I love this whimsical sculpture, which is embedded in a wall in Paris, France. For the story behind the mystery of the Pink Faces of Paris, visit This Link.
