A Tehran Art University student looks at a painting by 20th century U.S. artist Jackson Pollock at Tehran’s Museum of Contemporary Art on June 19, 2010.

Artists like Monet, Picasso and Warhol’s works not much appreciated by the leaders of Iran’s Islamic revolution were kept out of view for decades. Now, one of the greatest collections of contemporary Western art — put together under a Western-leaning monarchy in pre-revolutionary Iran — is open to the public, with some works on display for the first time in more than 30 years.

I don’t necessarily love rotting bodies, but there’s a texture to a rotting body that is unbelievable. Have you ever seen a little rotted animal? I love looking at those things, just as much as I like to look at a close-up of some tree bark, or a small bug, or a cup of coffee, or a piece of pie. You get in close and the textures are wonderful.

The unusual and fun street art from Brazil has already been posted in one of our previous articles last year, and now it is time to take a look at the follow-up. The artists behind this work are Anderson Augusto and Leonardo Delafuente, and they call it “The 6emeia project”.
