Da Capo Gaia Rings: Named After Greek Titan goddess - - Intricated Inner Patterened Jewelry

It may not interest everyone, but the idea of having jewelry like these Da Capo Gaia Rings gives the wearer a cherished secret. The elegant titanium accessories feature an unbroken inner loop of intricate patterning, inspired by the vibrant hidden lining of men’s suits.

Made from the durable metal, these burnished bands have been named after the Greek Titan goddess, Gaia, often characterized as Mother Earth. Exhibiting a clean and unblemished outer ring, the piece’s inside layer reveals the inner beauty and complexities of form, derived from nature herself.

Most Expensive Painting on Display at the Tate Modern - - A Treat for Art Lovers Especially Picasso Fanatics

Art is invaluable and you can’t really put a price to it. Picasso’s Nude, Green Leaves and Bust is a perfect example. The whole art world was stunned when it fetched a price of $106.5 million at Christie’s in New York. Now there is good news for art lovers, particularly those who love Picasso’s work. This most expensive painting is on display for the people to see and admire at the Tate Modern.

This painting was created in 1932, which by the way was the most fruitful year in Pablo Picasso’s creative life. He had done a series of paintings of his mistress and muse Marie-Therese Walter. This painting was part of a colorful explosion of works painted in January 1932 in anticipation of the major retrospective that he was planning.

The painting is currently owned by Steve Wynn who has lent it to the gallery and it will occupy the pride of place in the new Pablo Picasso room in the Poetry and Dream wing on Level 3 of the building. All works by Picasso have become very valuable and they generally exceed the pre sale estimates at the auctions. La Lecture, which is another masterpiece by him from the same period fetched $40 million earlier this year. Le Reve is another valuable work from the period by Picasso which can surprise every one with the price it commands if it is put under auction.

Matt Shilian and Origami Art: A Combination to Explore New Horizons for Classic Japanese Art

Taking the classic origami art a few steps further, Matt Shilian combined art with science to create these featured works.

Inspired by the cutting of different shapes and object to the design of a virus, Matt Shilian was definitely elaborate while detailing these different pieces. Shilian used various computer programs to get the format of his works and his intricate end products are worthy of a museum exhibit.

"Artist Matt Shlian is great at screwing up. A self-described papercraft engineer, Shlian designs stunning 3-D paper sculptures that fall somewhere between origami, pop-up books, and Minimal Art -- many of them happy accidents. Sometimes "I begin with an idea for movement and try to achieve that shape or form somehow," he tells us. "Along the way something usually goes wrong and a mistake becomes more interesting than the original idea and I work with that instead."
