henk hofstra: art-eggcident.

Dutch artist Henk Hofstra is at it again. You might remember his “Urban River” where he painted an entire city street aqua blue. This week he unveiled “Art-Eggcident”: several 30-metre wide fried eggs cracked open along the Zaailand – one of the Netherland’s largest open squares, in the northern city of Leeuwarden.

Wow. Northern Europe is a beacon of pure vanguard awesomeness. It never ceases to bring me joy that they are so open to the most random shit… and in public no less! I suggest we all move to the Netherlands immediately.

The largest eggs are totally flat, but the smaller ones have a three-dimensional “yolk” perfect for climbing on and taking pictures so you can show your friends that you sat on a gigantic egg yolk in the Netherlands

Now that KFC has advertising visible from space, I suppose this seems just as reasonable. In an attempt to create an outdoor art installation visible on Google Earth, Dutch artist Henk Hofstra used 4000 litres of bright blue paint to cover a 1000m stretch of road in Dratchen, Holland. Though you can clearly read “Water is Life” written across the stretch of road from a helicopter, it hasn’t appeared on Google Earth… yet.
