Tomokazu Matsuyama Snowglobe Edition
|If you’re a long term reader of this blog, you’ll know I’m a fan of that poster-object of lowbrow, the snowglobe. Recently, The Standard released an edition of snowglobes by Tokyo-born, New York-based artist, Tomokazu Matsuyama.
From The Standard’s description:
Each water-filled glass globe is filled with snow, that floats and settles on one of Matzu’s horseman and the trees and grasses in the forest he’s racing through. The wooden bases are individually and uniquely hand painted. Each piece signed and numbered, and stands at about 7 inches tall. This is a unique edition of 30.

A choice of yellow, blue or pink with brown or white base is available now here for $350 each. Too artsy for you? May I recommend revisiting art history in snowglobe form?

Jeremy,
I see you’ve reviewed the Ligano Reese art snowglobes and Matsuyama’s. I bet you will like these Steampunk (sort of – that’s not a great description) art snowglobes by Camryn Forrest.

Beautiful and very different than the others you’ve featured. Take a look at the Escher series… never seen it before.
