Art: exploring Bon Exposé

A recent post on Google+ led to my discovery of the site Bon Exposé.  In August 2012 Leodor Selenier announced their new site.

There are many delights to be found there, such as art installations, 3D graphics, graphic design, and photography. In a section called Inspiration, there's a subsection called Movies, where there are trailers and reviews of films about art and artists. "Surviving Picasso" is one I missed.

Installation artist Janet Echelman is present; there are some striking photos.

I particularly like the way they've handled 3D art, making the effort to assign a genre to each artist's work. One of Andrea Bertaccini's pieces is below.

Another featured work is "Mog's Christmas Calamity." Here's a how-it-was-made video with an introduction by author Judith Kerr.

If you're an artist you can request that your work be shown at Bon Exposé. Directions are available on the Submissions page.
