    Andrew Wyeth, John Olson's Funeral, 1945.
    Andrew Wyeth’s Drawings of His Own Funeral
    Two decades before he was interred beneath a stark tombstone, the artist Andrew Wyeth imagined his own funeral. In about fifty drawings from the early 90s known as the “Funeral Group,” he sketched family and friends gathered around a coffin containing his supine corpse.
    Another World is Possible, Ice Text projection, David Buckland.
    These Extreme Artworks Embody the Climate Crisis
    Headquartered in Dorset, England, Cape Farewell has been devoted to shifting perceptions about climate change since 2001, with founder and international director David Buckland at the helm. As climate warnings went unheard, Buckland was inspired to reunite the creative fields of science and art to converse with people using a cultural language. “Art always seduces. And people love being seduced,” he points out. “Everybody holds a piece of art in their psyche…. So art is a very powerful weapon.”

    Who Invented Emojis? A Brief History
    Those original 176 emojis covered themes like weather, modes of transportation, sports, technology, and of course, emotions. But if you’re thinking emojis get their name from the “emo” in emotion, you would be wrong—According to MoMA, “e” meant picture, while “moji” meant character.
    Aboriginal rock art on the Barnett River, Mount Elizabeth Station.
    A Brief Introduction to Aboriginal Art & Artists
