Ryan Ballinger uses running as a performative art practise, undergoing professional training and testing his endurance and physical limitations against those of international level elite athletes.

The artist has mapped a track around New Plymouth's Govett-Brewster Art Gallery site and will over the duration of his show, Fartlek, be running 728 laps of this track to represent the number of days the gallery will be closed during the construction of the Len Lye Centre.

Building Castles Made of Sand, Pedro Matos’ new solo show at Martha Otero Gallery in L.A. opened on May 17, and for those who couldn’t make the opening, here’s a look at the range of new work by the Portuguese-born artist on display now at the gallery. Many of the works are inspired by traditional Portuguese techniques, while additional canvases employ a more contemporary Western aesthetic. Building Castles Made of Sand runs until June 15, 2013, so you still have time to check it out if you’re in the Los Angeles.

Shamus Clisset (AKA FakeShamus), makes some of the most unique and darkly-humorous art in the digital sphere today, incorporating a range of ghoulish characters and low-brow insinuations into his incredibly detailed compositions. Using physically-based raytracing software, the artist produces hyper-real vignettes that delve into his own obsessions and personal history with an acute sense of the absurdity of our futuristic modern world.
