I absolutely love this: Florian Maier-Aichen, "Untitled (Cloud)," 2001. Sold at auction for £18,750.

Hungarian artist Bence Hajdu digitally removes all presence of people from Old Masters paintings such as Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper."
For some reason I was mesmerized by Kevin Young's poem "Ragtime" that was displayed inside a subway car (as part of NYC MTA's Arts for Transit program).
Like hot food I love you
like warm bread & cold
cuts, butter sammiches
or, days later, after Thanksgiving
when I want whatever's left.
Kind of wonderful, no?
When not making his living as one of the best wide receivers in the NFL, Larry Fitzgerald travels the world (over 80 countries on every continent except Antarctica...yet) and takes pretty great photographs.
When visiting the exhibit "Century of the Child: Growing by Design, 1900–2000" currently on display at the MoMA on its fifth floor, in addition to this...big ass table and two ginormous chairs, you are also greeted by a large display of the above photo (aptly titled "Boy on the Wall") taken in 1973 by Jens S Jensen of a boy, Michael, playing around on "a modernist housing estate in Hammarkullen, Sweden" where "his youthful tenacity [augments] his presence within an otherwise bleak architectural context."
Here is Michael today 39 years later in this photograph below also captured by Jensen:

Jenny Holzer, "More Than Once."
Jeppe Hein, Social Bench #5, 2005. Select your benchmates carefully.
I really like the photography of NYC shutterbug Joseph Holmes.
Damien Hirst, The Anatomy of an Angel, 2008. This reminds me a lot of Jason Freeny's cutaway sculptures of various pop culture characters such as Barbie, Lego man, and Mickey Mouse.
Speaking of Mickey Mouse, did you know that that Wayne Allwine, the voice of Mickey Mouse, was married to Russi Taylor, the voice of Minnie?

At SFMOMA currently is Tauba Auerbach’s "50/50 Floor" installation that resembles a massive QR code. As its name implies, the floor is created with 50% white and 50% black tiles which have been randomly distributed.

This brilliant statue by the Algerian artist Adel Abdessemed capturing the infamous moment when Zinedine Zidane's (my all time favorite soccer player) head-butted Marco Materazzi during the 2006 World Cup final was installed recently in front of the Centre Pompidou modern art museum in Paris.
I'm a big fan of Abdessemed: I previously chronicled here my visit to see his surreal airplane installation a few years back.
Ryu might have the shoryuken, but it can't match the power of someone who floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. This street art piece in Paris was by COMBO. His other pop culture mash-ups are great, many of which are political.
I enjoyed Jon Shireman's "Broken Flower" photo series where he soaked flowers in liquid nitrogen and then snapped the shattered result.
