Mind Blowing Hyperrealistic Sculptures

Mind Blowing Hyperrealistic Sculptures
Artists that produce photorealistic sculptures, for the most part, aim to show us our bodies and life as it really is. Technically, artists who strive for a high resolution level of detail in painting or sculpture are called “hyperrealists”, although all hyperrealists are also considered to be photorealists. Every detail is slavishly recreated as close to the real life model as possible, even if the sculpture is larger than the original scale. Photorealistic sculptors create truly amazing sculptures that will make you feel wonder, revulsion and the sense of looking in someone else’s mirror. In this post we feature sculptors Ron Mueck, Evan Penny, Jamie Salmon, Duane Hanson, Sam Jinks and Adam Beane who produce sculpture that seems alive in every detail, right down to veins and rashes on skin. Ron Mueck Ron Mueck is one of the premier names in the photorealistic sculpture field. Evan Penny Age spots, wrinkles, and every detail of a face are featured in the work of Toronto artist Evan Penny.

Protéger sa GoPro : tour d'horizon des boîtes de rangement, par Gaëtan. MAJ du 23/03/2011 en fin d'article : réalisation personnelle d'Alfonso et astuce de Julien Note préliminaire : merci à Gaëtan, l'auteur de l'article qui suit, pour son travail ! « Waterproof », « shockproof », « dustproof »... la Gopro est réellement conçue pour résister aux pires traitements qu'on puisse lui infliger sur terre, sur mer et dans les airs, et pourtant, comme beaucoup d'utilisateurs, c'est lors du transport que ma caméra souffre le plus. Au fond d'un sac, dans une caisse remplie de néoprène, d'eau salée et de sable, dans une caisse à outils, dans la poche, couverte de boue... Les environnements hostiles sont nombreux et le problème de la fragilité relative de la lentille face aux rayures et aux saletés a déjà été évoqué à plusieurs reprises comme dans dans cet article. Aujourd'hui on va parler du transport de la caméra ET de ses accessoires (qui font toute la versatilité de la GoPro face aux situations les plus extrême). ou encore l'Otterbox waterproof Pas mal, non ? Bilan :

MONSTER Collective Really Bad Tattoos I don't have any tattoos and I don't plan on getting any in the near future or at any time for that matter. I have nothing against tattoos or people that have them I just have never heard a plausible argument as to why to get one. If I really really like a piece of art I would hang it on my wall or if I had an uncontrollable desire to show the piece of art to the world I would put it on a t-shirt that way when I inevitably get sick of looking at it I can either take it off the wall or give it to a thrift store. Anyway here are some tattoos that completely boggle my mind. Clay Aiken and Linkin Park 2 very different acts which actually have a lot in common. I think that's the picture you're supposed to take out of the frame. Food Tattoos???? *Update: Due to the many comments I am now aware that the hamburger tattoo refers to a Jimmy Buffet song, but that doesn't make it any less bad. **Update 2: In Canada corn dogs are called pogo sticks. Holy shit this is getting out of hand.

Lost At Sea I've said goodbye to NYC, but that doesn't mean the fun has to end! Follow all my latest scouting posts from the West Coast at: Instagram | Twitter | Facebook | TikTok. One of my favorite public art pieces in New York City is probably familiar to anyone who has ever waited in line for the Liberty Island Ferry. Located on the west side of Battery Park, the American Merchant Mariners’ Memorial is a haunting tribute to commercial seamen who lost their lives, for whatever reason, on the water. The memorial, designed by artist Marisol, was based on a true event during World War II, in which a Nazi U-boat attacked an American merchant marine vessel. While the marines held on to their sinking vessel, the Nazis photographed the victims, then left. As you can see above, two men are desperately crying for help while a third tries to pull a victim from the water.
