I think the thing I like most about Ron Mueck’s work is the kind of people he chooses to sculpt. So many people take the easy out and sculpt some incredible bodice of a woman and adonis of a man. His sculptures are so uncanny in how real they are and I don’t think it’s because how realistically he sculpts them.

Hey Pittsburgh, this is a pretty great project.
“TALKPGH is Pittsburgh’s first mobile talk show. Throughout April 2013, a truck (serving as a mobile talk show set) will drive to each of the city’s 90 neighborhoods to interview residents about their area. The purpose of TALKPGH is to collect Pittsburgh residents’ stories, opinions, about thoughts about their neighborhoods.”
Li Hongbo, your sculptures are crazy.
Also, thanks for telling me exactly how to make them.
I’ve posted this before, but something about the music and visuals is just perfect.
SIX x ATE: An Interview with Casey Droege
This is a great interview with a good friend of mine, Casey Droege, about her SIX x ATE project (interviewed by another great Pittsburgh Artist Kim Beck). If you’re getting into the local arts scene definitely read this interview and check out the show. Casey organized some very rad dinner events featuring 18 different artists currently working in Pittsburgh.

Now seeing the video of this I really hope Holton Rower paid this girl and that she isn’t just some intern.
