Contemporary art cannot be placed into neat compartments or a series of movements. The world of contemporary art is rich diverse, and UNPREDICTABLE. While painting, photography, drawing, and the crafts still attract a large group of artists, these familiar forms of art have evolved with time. Film, video, audio, installations, performance, and computers are common media today.
The following are just a couple examples of contemporary public art that I feel spark curiosity and deserve a second look.

Artist unknown.
A different view of life.
Rain, rain, go away...
