Jonathan Monk
Deflated Sculpture #1, 2009
Stainless steal and maple wood pedestal
76x59x41"
Monk took the idea of Jeff Koon's Rabbit and simply gave the rabbit a deflated balloon look. The gloss and slumping appearance of the stainless steel gives the impression of a shiny balloon, yet Monk has made the once upright bunny now deeply wrinkled while still appearing highly polished.
Interesting Material:
Urs Fischer
AM & PM, 2001
wood, clay, polyurethane, resin, pigment, bread, glue and mold
11 1/4x 12 x 12 3/4"
Fischer gives the shape of a head by dripping his materials over the figure, as opposed to shaping them on.
