Colossal is a Webby Award-nominated art and visual culture blog. Founded by Chicago-based editor Christopher Jobson in August 2010, the site covers topics ranging from art, design, and photography, to visual aspects of science and general creativity.
The National Endowment for the Arts has called the website a "must read." American blogger Jason Kottke describes it as "a top-notch visual art/design blog," and PBS' Art:21 said the publication "brings recognition to under-represented (or even unrepresented) artists."
Colossal has been further praised by American actor Neil Patrick Harris as "artistic, smart, and inspiring," and the publication was cited by the TED blog as one of "100 Websites You Should Know and Use" in 2013.
