If you take the time to check out one new artist today, make it Motohiko Odani. The veteran Japanese artist recently put on a solo show titled 'Phantom Limb' in which he exhibited some of his best works to date.
Motohiko Odani has been active in the art world for quite some time, but 'Phantom Limb' is his largest show to date comprised of 14 works. These sculptures truly are a sight to see and should appeal to those who normally wouldn't be caught dead in an art museum. You'd be lying if you said that that unicorn sculpture isn't badass.
