Li Wei
Culture Buzz Chinese artist Li Wei has produced a baffling series of self-portraits that seem physically impossible. We all know that Asians are really good at computers, but these photographs were actually not created using Photoshop. Which makes it more like a non-annoying form of performance art.

Bjork 3D
Music Buzz The highly anticipated 3-D video version for Björk's latest single "Wanderlust" will have its nationwide debut on April 20. How fitting that the video would be released on 4.20. You can now watch the video in all its unbridled 3-D glory here.

Guillermo Vargas
Culture Buzz The Costa Rican artist is the target of much controversy after he tied up an allegedly starving dog who some claimed died while on "display." You know what else constitutes as art? Fingerpainting and decoupage, and neither of those things involve killing innocent creatures.

Marfa, TX
Culture Buzz A small desert town in Texas has an interesting art scene. If you ever wanted to say goodbye to the city, Marfa seems like the ideal artists' community where you could go without being driven crazy by the fact that you're in the South.

Elephant Painting
Culture Buzz Domesticated elephants are being taught how to paint in an effort to save this endangered species. You have to watch the clip of Paya the Elephant painting a self-portrait. We were never able to get our self-portraits to look this good in art class.

Googly Eyes
Culture Buzz A favorite from childhood arts and crafts projects googly eyes are showing up everywhere. From cupcakes to grafitti art and iPod cases, googly eyes are having their moment in the cultural zeitgeist. It's time to dig up those kindergarten art projects and repackage them as outsider art.

Bubblegum Art
Culture Buzz We've been noticing gum grafitti, gum sculptures, gum paintings. Some of this artwork is actually pretty incredible. We'd rather the gum end up on some art gallery wall rather than the bottom of our shoes.

Nude Models on Strike
Culture Buzz Italy's art models are going on strike and asking for better pay and better working conditions. And they're raising awareness of what a thankless job posing nude for the sake of art is. We might be more sympathetic to their cause if they were actually protesting in the nude.
