very nice and surreal stuff with the umbrellas! me likey.
Thought the umbrellas was an unusual art display, but loved them. The ones turned into lights were beautiful.
These are great -- I never knew umbrellas could look so amazing! Great article!
had never seen umbrella art until now. thanks for the post. broadened my mind some. if you have the time, drop by and tell us how i can improve my art section. cheers!
there's a group of local NW artists who did an umbrella installation at a few different events called "umbrella favella" with dynamic multicolored lights. here's a photo: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nomadicentrepreneur/2563236489/
they are very beautiful umbrella and perfect image. Nice blog i love it and i'm sure i'll keep on coming back.
Wowza - very cool installations! I think of the broken umbrellas out there that could be put to a better use. Glad I found your blog!
Very nice! :D
Wo, it's cool. I like it.
I..never thought umbrellas could be used for anything besides getting away from the rain..now I know differently ! Strange but amazing art. Photos do them justice
THE INSTALLATION OF UMBRELLAS IS AN ART AND THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR.
Wow....I Love all kinds of art....this is absolutely beautiful.The colors of the umbrellas were so vividly displayed,they were very eyecatching.I'm not an artist but I do respect the artist....There is real talent here.
Nice... Cool find! Are all of these real or some just photoshopped? The last one on with yellow umbrellas on a hill by a highway seems unreal for example...
How fantastic! Creative artists can see beauty in anything and produce amazing things that stir the emotions of one kind or another (or all of them together!)
@ Dima, we are sure none of these are shopped!
so beautiful and simple too..thank you!!
How wonderfully cool!
a good collection of arts using umbrellas
@everyone, if you were an umbrella, what color would you be?
The Umbrella art installation at Island Six Studios reminds me of the dome formation near the end of the 300 movie.
Sweet stuff I love it. Such creative people out there~!
Cheered me up no end!
amazing umbrellas..
If an Umbrella fell in the forest....
nice to see how umbrellas could be transformed into art pieces..i enjoyed viewing and love to share it with friends too...
beautiful
I have never such a creative work from common things. It is really great and it also proves that for making a beautiful art work, it is not necessary to use expensive things only.
Least expected that plain umbrellas can turn into spectacular designs! Brilliant!
Very nice!
wow.I like it. That was very creative.
All these pictures make me smile.
Two thumbs up...
wow that gives me a wonderful interior decoration idea for my house.Thanks for sharing dude..
It is beautifull! An artificial jellyfish!
it's very interesting, i like it
something i don't think before, that stuff can be a great decorations
I saw the umbrella installation in Thessaloniki, Greece this past summer when I traveled for 9 months through Europe on my bicycle. It was great to see it on your list. very cool!
@ Darren, it must have been great to see it in actual.
These are fantastic installations, so imaginative and creative. I, especially, liked the "Paper Umbrellas" and "The Art House at Night", they remind me of Dale Chihuly Glass works.
There was a very interesting umbrella installation at the channel 4 building in London. Just like the i dents it was only viewable from one perspective.Ive put a link for an image, but it is nowhere near as good as the real deal.

"Umbrella Art Installation in Greece:"
if you want to be more specific the installation is in Thessaloniki, and the artist was called Yorgos Zoggolopoulos. He represented Greece in the Venice Biennale 1993 with his project "Umbrellas"
