On Target

I’ve been waiting for this day all year. No, not the premiere of the movie I’m in – the opening of the new Super Target at River Gate. Hooray!

River Gate is a new 60,0000-square-foot shopping center being built just a few miles from my house. There’s not much in the way of retail shopping in the immediate area and funny as it sounds, Patty and I really have been counting the days until it opened. The Home Depot (yea) is the other anchor store, with Best Buy (yea), PetSmart (yea), and a bunch of new restaurants (yea) to open soon.

Now throw in some busy city sidewalks and a bucket of street chalk and you’ve got the work of a European artist named Julian Beever. Beever creates chalk drawings on flat city sidewalks that amazingly appear three-dimensional when viewed from just the right angle. From any other angle the drawings look totally distorted. Above you see an amazing illusion of Beever acting as if he’s ready to dive into the drawing, which is really a totally flat section of sidewalk! On the right is another of his drawings where he is being rescued by Batman and Robin from a subterranean Gotham City. Below are two links with photos to many more of Beever’s 3D illusions. Enjoy
