Devout Christians may see the 'Game Over' statue as sacrilegious, but I see it as a gamer masterpiece. Mario Brothers is a religion of its own, wouldn't you agree? I was lucky enough to see Michelangelo's 'La Pietà' last year, and 'Game Over' is an impressive impersonation.
Created by Kordian Lewandowskiego, 'Game Over' stars Nintendo characters Mario and Princess Peach, for those of you not familiar with the gaming culture. Made from polystyrene foam, this is a creation I would love to see in person.
