Maximilian's Schell by Carol T Chung
Los Angeles, CA - Outside of the Materials and Applications Architecture and Landscape Research courtyard resides a giant yellow black hole. Created by Benjamin Ball and Gaston Nogues, this rendition of "the deadliest force in the Universe" is entitled Maximilian's Schell, after the actor's portrayal of Dr. Hans Reinhardt in the sci-fi thriller, The Black Hole. The installation will be up until November. Check the Materials & Applications site for further details.
UPDATE: Check out centripetalnotion's beautiful flickr set of Maximilian's Schell that was posted in the reader contribution section.

Noa Nahari: Side Walk
Entering the latest installation at the Jerusalem Artists' House is an exercise in sensory confusion.

The small gallery space is empty, and the floor is covered wall-to-wall with seemingly unremarkable gray cinder blocks. The...
