Artist of the week- Helmut Smits

So I've been about shitty about updating this. I blame my roommate's dog. Anywho, this time I want to share about a lesser obvious contemporary artist.

Helmut Smits. I couldn't find much about his bio, all I know is tht he ws born in 1974 and is based out of the Netherlands. He graduated Hertogenbosch Academy for Visual Arts in 2001 and has rarely shown his work in the US. Ironically a lot of his work is coping with American, consumerist and advertising culture.  The first piece of his I found was machine that turns Coca Cola into clean drinking water
