Ron Muek's Life Art

When it comes to lifelike art there is none like Ron Muek. His artwork is so lifelike you may think you're looking at a real person. Even when it's a giant baby head. Ron started his career off by working for the Swedish kid's television show "Shirl's Neighborhood". As creative director for the show he made puppets and even voiced them. When the show ended he began making sculptures for the Hayward Gallery. He then met Charles Saatchi and the rest is history. His work has been displayed all over the world in many museums. His work has sold for $800,000.00.

Chew On This 6

Gum. It's great. It freshens your breath, keeps kids quiet, eases your hunger, keeps your mind off of things, entertains you. It's a wonderful invention you put in your mouth. But what do you do when it runs out of flavor? Probably throw it somewhere, or stick it to something right? Reminds me of this tree at Stone Mountain Park in Georgia near the water slides. Everyone stuck gum to this tree. We called it the gum tree. Well one man had a fantastic idea about what to do with all his left over gum pieces. Recycle them. Gross. He made them into art. Maurizio Savini, is an Italian artist that makes sculptures out of chewing gum. His pieces have sold for as much as $55,000.00. Impressive. Here's some of his work.
