Google Gets Artsy With Jeff Koons, Nigo & Marc Ecko

Manga master Osamu Tezuka’s iGoogle skins
Considering how much time we waste on Google, it would be nice to have something to look at other than a blank white screen. Recently, the company unveiled their new artist themes, which apply a variety of different looks to your personalized iGoogle homepage. Artists who contributed original skins for the project include Jeff Koons, Marc Ecko, The Beastie Boys, Os Gêmeos and A Bathing Ape’s Nigo, plus over 60 others. Starting today, art from the series will also be on display on the streets of NYC’s Meatpacking District through the weekend. After the jump, watch Google’s video “trailer” hyping up the artist series.
