Just a brick in the wall

For all of you who did not play with Legos when they were young or those who think that it is for kids only. There was an exhibition in Liverpool called Art Craziest Nation in january, that recreated a vision af the glamourous artworld, using the famous brick game.

Artist Mark Wallinger can be seen in the centre of the image above wearing a white shirt and black sunglasses. He is looking at Koons' Balls; in the background part of Kleins' Sponges can be seen.

Here are some examples that I chose because I had the occasion to mention these people or artworks earlier in the blog:

Featured artworks
Hirst's Shark Tank Whiteread's Room Chapmans' Dead Guys Emin's Bed Warhol's Money Klein's Sponges

Featured artists
Damien Hirst Dinos and Jake Chapman Tracey Emin Rachael Whiteread Matthew Barney Mark Wallinger
Artworld luminaries and special guests
Larry Gagosian

The group is called 'Little Artists' to explore "what it means to be an artist in the current super-branded cultural climate" in their own words. More information is still available on the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool @:
