This is Paul Bond's Lao Tzu's Dream. (Do you know what Lao Tzu's name means? Old Teacher. ) Yeah, I'm a total STAN. Look at how he uses hyper-realism (the stones' texture) but utterly surreal elements...you know, the tree & such...knock the viewer a little off balance. Plus, it's a little mockery of the whole hipster cairn-building fad. He's good.

This piece is done by Barbara Kruger and the reason I picked this out was its simplicity, yet almost a sense of urgency with this piece. The juxtaposition of the aggressive slogan with the image of mass media communication assists in getting the message across that what you buy not your inner life makes you who you are.
