Amazing 3D Optical Illusion Street Art
Posted by: "Aditya chaudhari" adi_love44u@yahoo.com adi_love44u

A new book collects the 3D street art of Kurt
Wenner, a former NASA employee, who uses his mathematical skill to create
three-dimensional illusions on pavements across the world. When viewed from the
correct angle, people standing on top of them look like they are floating in
thin air, and solid concrete can look like gaping chasms. Kurt has been
perfecting his technique since 1982. Now, using the skills he has perfected over
30 years, he is able to create stereoscopic images, such as the one above
enabling people to walk along imaginary webs slung by Spiderman.
For 25 years the artist has been using complex calculations from his old job
- creating conceptual drawings of extraterrestrial landscapes at NASA - to bring
floors and walls to life. Because of the emergence of computer-generated images,
he was one of the very last artists to be trained how to mechanically replicate
perspectives using pencil and paper and complex equations. But in 1982 he turned
his back on space projects and, after selling all his belongings, moved from the
USA to Italy where he applied his knowledge to art.
He says: "The pieces look real because they are calculated to be perfectly
and mathematically accurate. It's exactly how they would look if the objects in
my paintings were actually there. I use a piece of string to measure fixed
points between the viewing location and the painting. This lets me calculate
exactly how the perspective should be. It takes me around five to seven days to
complete an average sized piece."
This was the first interactive 3D street painting, combining real people with
their painted reflections. It was created during a street painting festival for
a Swiss-German documentary in 1987 at Grazie Di Curtatone, Italy.
A Door to the Caribbean in New York City, April 2011. The pavement in front
of the New York Stock Exchange was transformed into a luxury cruise ship,
transporting the public to exotic destinations.
