39 Intriguing Sculptures

— January 13, 2009 — Art & Design
Sculptures come in so many intriguing and fascinating forms. Some sculptural art is representative of an epiphany or an awaking of the soul of the artist, whereas others embody what some may be considered an artist's quirky side.

This cluster features aesthetic sculptures from ugly to extravagant, human bones to human hair, soft to rough, and from chiseled to natural sculptures in nature:

Implications - From gas mask baby art to famous animations in wood, these intriguing sculptures just show how much the art world has changed. Instead of certain design aesthetics dominating the scene such as Baroque and Neoclassical, the art world is now being enhanced by different mediums.
