Beautiful | Decay

Lately I am fascinated by an art and design website called Beautiful | Decay. It started as a "homemade" photocopied magazine in 1996, when its founder Amir Fallah was still at high school. Fourteen years later it is internationally renowned and is available both for artists/designers and their public. The online version is just a shop-window that allows artists to show some of their masterpieces with a brief bio and explanation.
There is also an indie online store that sells accessories, clothing, original paintings, houseware and books. 
Three times a year Amir Fallah publish a limited edition coloured magazine which includes most of these art pieces and interviews and it is aimed to collectors.
Thanks to Beautiful | Decay I felt in love with a Swiss artist called Beni Bischof: his works are funny, evocative and always striking. I appreciate his collages (see an example on the left - Ohne Titel, 2008-09) and illustrations, but he is also very talented as a painter.
