I think there have probably been over 1000 videos put on youtube now for this event, but these are two of my favorites:


YouTube - Moona Lisa


YouTube - ArtPrize Letter

Rob Bliss' "Paper Airplane Event". Though the planes didn't quite fly as planned, the event was epic.

This still runs through tomorrow, with all of the venues open to the public and works still being shown. 95% of the venues are indoors, and the weather forecast is supposed to suck this weekend in Michigan.

Last night, well over 3000 packed into the Steelcase Ballroom at the convention center to hear that Ran Ortner's oil painting "Open Water no. 24" won the public vote for the big prize.

If you missed this, don't worry, it will be back next year. It got coverage in a lot of national media outlets, including CBS News, ABC News, NY Times online, Boston Globe, and this article yesterday in USA Today:
