Jeff Koons is a big-name artist: one of the most famous living artists in both America and the entire world. In fact, "Balloon Dog (Orange)" has established the record - which still stands - for "most money ever paid for an artwork by a living artist." On Nov 12, 2013, it sold for $58.4 million at a Christie's auction: "An Orange Balloon Dog Sold for $58.4M, So Here Are 10 Other Cool Jeff Koons Balloon Pieces" by Olivia B. Waxman on time.com --- "Balloon Dog (Orange)" - (DonRocks)- 5 replies

Pedestrians along Takoma Park's Carroll Avenue can enjoy a bit of public art that would be hard to notice from a passing car: for some six or seven hundred feet between Columbia Ave and the firehouse, the sidewalk on the south side has a decorative border of thousands of colored tiles of various shapes and sizes, pieced together in various seemingly nonrepeating patterns, as if someone has transplanted a two-dimensional ribbon of pebble beach into the urban landscape. This is the work of Silver Spring's Adriana Baler, an art professor at Montgomery College and also at the Corcoran, whose other work includes ceramic wall collages, the Escher-esque solid-surface Peeps tiles in the flagship Peeps store at National Harbor, and the faceted chocolate molds at Fiola Mare. Baler's design was selected in 2005 by the city's Arts and Humanities Commission from a field of twelve proposals for the "Carroll Avenue Sidewalk Public Art Project".
