<p>At first glance it looks like they&#8217;re putting real guns in their mouths, but in  real life they are eating edible ice guns.</p>
<p><span id="more-5515"></span></p>
<p>They all have different kinds of flavors&#8211;cola, cherry, licorice  and black currant. They are an addition to the first  50 tinted ice  guns that <a href="http://www.florianjenett.de/">Florian Jenett</a> and <a href="http://valentinbeinroth.com/">Valentin Beinroth</a> made and placed in   downtown Frankfurt a few years ago.</p>
<p>These edible eatables where exhibited at an art show  called &#8220;Freeze Revisited&#8221;, and their existence certainly shocked a lot of people.</p>

<p>American artist <a href="http://www.chadwys.com/">Chad Wys</a> has expressed himself by adding his own art to already existing <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/category/art">art</a> pieces. His controversial art is featured by using <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/tag/tape">tape</a> and paint to &#8220;mess up&#8221; the original pieces.</p>
<p><span id="more-5477"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/tag/sculptures">Sculptures</a> are in a way &#8220;brutalized&#8221; by colorful painting splashed all over them, and the paintings are also marked with tape or black <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/tag/paint">paint</a> so the whole object won&#8217;t show.It looks rather messy, but in the same way modern.</p>
<p>Another similar artistic act was done by covering random lightning city billboards with <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/2010/07/mosquitos-attacking-city-billboards.html">smashed mosquitoes.</a></p>

<p>Who would have known that one can use newspapers to create art? The  inventive artist<a href="http://myhumancomputer.blogspot.com/"> Nick Georgiou</a> from <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/tag/nyc">Queens, NY</a>, is folding different  newspapers to create <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/tag/sculptures">sculptures</a> and other installations. The sculptures are usually placed in public so  you may have seen them around in New York City, but some of his pieces  are also for indoor exhibition like the ones he has framed in to look  like paintings.</p>
<p><span id="more-4836"></span></p>
<p>The artist  himself loves to transform printed words into something else  because he  thinks it&#8217;s a way of giving new life to newspapers, as well  as <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/tag/books">books. </a></p>
<p>While Georgiou is making sculptures out of newspaper, this  other artist  is using paper and <a href="http://www.thisblogrules.com/2010/06/an-apartment-detailed-built-by-using-carton.html">carton to built a detailed apartment.</a></p>
