A Table: Bird House Sculpture.
2008-09-11 17:10:00 A Table: Bird House Sculpture.Here we have this project 'A Table' by Maxime Delporte which is created for birds. Each of these modules are built in the similar fashion of what forms the basic of a house (walls/ roof/ door ??.) which all come under a typographical character. This 'table' is supposed to be an invitation to the birds to come and have food, drink or even take a nap. The space is been arranged in a systematic order that has a place to live, dark niches to take rest, and it also has small containers for food, storage for maintenance requirement and the other things. Now this all makes it quite an interesting combination for a 'table'!Other Posts:3D Floating Art.Interesting Tables.Fun With Toilet Paper.Creativity With Barcode.Paper Cars, Planes & Boats.

New underwater sculpture park in Grenada
2008-06-02 22:02:00 Photography courtesy Jason De Caires TaylorNature can be the most violent of aggressors, but sometimes it can also be a muse for great art. In Grenada, recent hurricanes and tropical storms battered the island, inevitably damaging some of the country?s reefs.Shocked by the damage to the reefs, British sculptor and diver Jason de Caires Taylor, 33, was moved to give nature a helping hand by installing an artificial reef on the sea bed at Molinere Bay just north of Grenada?s capital, St George?s to provide a habitat for marine life and to allow coral to grow and develop naturally. Some call the park eerie, some fantastic. In the current issue of MACO Destinations, Sally Maton visits the new underwater sculpture park, and tells us: ?There is nothing theme park or Disney about this place. You have to interact with it and go and find the sculptures yourself, which all adds to the adventure.?It?s a great adventure for those who love the thrill of being underwater.

How Is A Bronze Sculpture Made?
2008-04-23 23:02:00 I’m sure I can safely assume you’re not wondering how one carves or molds a sculpture. Although the carving and modeling methods require great skill, the techniques used are fairly simple- you basically use tools and your bare hands to “add” or “subtract” material until you get your desired product. Once you have carved away from a stone or other hard surface, you can sand it and polish it. If you were carving from clay the last step would be to fire it in a kiln or heat it in an oven. But how are bronze and other cast sculptures made? It’s not like there’s a chunk of metal and the sculptor chisels away at it. Casting is a little more complicated than the other two types of sculpture. It takes a team of several people, a foundry, and a 10 step process that has been around since 3000 B.C. When completed, you will have a work of art that will be around for that same amount of time into the future. In a nutshell founders reproduce in bron...

Mark Andreas: Reactive Sculpture Series
2008-04-11 03:28:00 After exhibiting up and down the eastern seaboard, Brooklyn-based sculptor Mark Andreas has crossed the East River to make his Manhattan debut. Andreas' Reactive Sculpture Series includes the hulking 400-pound Seed Spreader (pictured), an intimidating machine equipped with three-foot spinning blades. It brilliantly expresses the fear associated with the industrialization of mass food production that, in the words of the artist, ?conceptually speaks to the lack of control consumers have over food production.? Other works include Hanging In Balanceand Avian Reservoir, which also make poignant statements about the human race's precarious future given the ecological realities of a planet that's being taxed of its resources.
