So we’ve all seen the video of hello kitty teaming up with Mac cosmetics but have we all seen the Hello Kitty hospital in Taiwan?? The hospital has branded its maternity ward in head to toe pink, from uniform to incubators, in hope that patients will recover sooner. It’s officially licensed by Hello Kitty’s owners.
The hospital Director Tsai Tsung-chi said he hopes the cutesy kitty that is one of the world’s most recognisable characters will ease the pain and fear associated with childbirth and being admitted into hospital.
Pain is pain to me but can’t be bad to look at right?
Tom Sachs re-update his website and present some new Installations :

Other bronze casts, including stacks of car batteries and skateboarding ramps, accompany these bronzes. Editions follow at Baldwin Gallery in Aspen, Colorado and at the Trocadero in Paris, France.
French nobleman and fashion designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac has enjoyed international success with his creations. He uses fashion as a landscape for a perpetual art project, making commentary on society referencing pop culture. His coat of teddy bears, seen above, was once worn by Madonna.
