Hi-Fructose is a quarterly print art magazine founded by artists Attaboy and Annie Owens in 2005. Hi-Fructose focuses squarely on the art which transcends genre and trend, assuring readers thorough coverage and content that is informative and original. Hi-Fructose showcases an amalgamation of new contemporary, emerging as well distinguished artists, with a spotlight on awe inspiring spectacles from round the world.
Social media accounts are filled with pop culture take offs and tributes, but the hand beaded works of @fistashka.art stands out; perhaps because the Japanese beads, pearled details, and thread patterns highlight the painterly originals, in an interestingly different way. Swipe to see tributes to Van Gogh, Klimt, Khalo, and more. #beads #embroidery #hifructose

There’s an interesting show of the personal artworks of musician Nick Cave, which closes tomorrow in Brussels. The narrative fueled series of glazed ceramic figurines “tells the cradle-to-grave story of the Devil. More everyman than fearsome Antichrist, he is an allegorical character who experiences the vicissitudes of life in a very human way.”
Cave’s song lyrics have often delved into religion, tragedy and the human sin (especially murder). That, combined with his preacher like stage presence makes the subject matter a natural and welcomed extension of his creative output.

Interestingly enough, this animated fan video of the awesome Otoboke Beaver, while rabidly fun, is only 85% as frentically frenzied as the real thing (see slide two).

Rediscovering the brilliant larger than life-sized crocheted figures of Jo Hamilton:
Artist Jo Hamilton ‘paints’ portraits with a rather non-traditional material: yarn. She meticulously crochets portraits from photographs of people, often friends. The unusual medium for the familiar art-form provides the unexpected on several levels. Each portrait has a texture very different from common painterliness - they’re soft, knotty, and bordered by loose ambiguous edges. Hamilton’s material perhaps also goes further to suggest her relationship with her subjects. Each portrait takes a considerable amount of time and intimate work by hand. Further, the crochet process is reminiscent of household trinkets and decorations lending her work a feeling of life and home. -Danny Olda for hifructose.com
