Clouds
You may have missed this in Time Magazine, what with Sandy, the election, the cliff etc.
How cool is it that artist Berndnaut Smilde can make a cloud appear inside a room? He requires a precise temperature, humidity and lighting. When he has that all set, Berndnaut produces the cloud with a fog machine. Click on the link to see a video of the process: Berndnaut Smilde Makes Clouds Appear in a Room
I agree with Time. It definitely reminds me of Magritte, but with a classic Old Masters twist.
