Animal Constellation Chalk Art by Philippe Baudelocque (2010) Paris-based Philippe Baudelocque takes chalk art to a whole new level. Drawing on a black background, his incredibly intricate animals look like constellations on a dark night. Each drawing is composed of cells, and each cell has its own pattern. With beautiful layers, these three-dimensional animals look like they're ready to jump off the city walls.

Salvador Dalí "Rinoceronte vestido con puntillas" (1956) Michael Jackson and Bubbles. Porcelain sculpture by Jeff Koons Description[edit] Sculpture[edit] Bubbles was Jackson's domestic animal who was bought by the artist from a Texas research facility in 1983. It has been claimed by the media that he was Jackson's best and faithful friend who even joined the singer on his world tours and helped in the household.[3] Jeff Koons used a press photo of Jackson and Bubbles as a template for his sculpture.[2] It is almost identical to the artist's work except for a slight variation of the posture.
Koons changed Jackson's direction of view and thus adjusted the composition to the requirements of a sculptural work which has to take into account many different viewing angles. Three of the Michael Jackson and Bubbles sculpture were made. Interpretation[edit] Jeff Koons has stated that his works of art should reach the largest possible audience. I wanted to create him in a very god-like icon manner.
