I'm not much in to art, but this realy impressed me!
Ron Mueck (born 1958) is an Australian hyper-realist sculptor working in Great Britain.
Mueck's early career was as a model maker and puppeteer for children's television and films, notably the film Labyrinth for which he also contributed the voice of Ludo.
Mueck moved on to establish his own company in London, making photo-realistic props and animatronics for the advertising industry. Although highly detailed, these props were usually designed to be photographed from one specific angle hiding the mess of construction seen from the other side. Mueck increasingly wanted to produce realistic sculptures which looked perfect from all angles.
Have a look at this slide show from
Washington Post.
The details are amazing!

Art is just as religion; we look at the same thing with different eyes. Disagree and discuss.

lol, see there where we see it different, art is something which is created to please, what is shown above is what I class is modern art which I can appreciate, but when it is just a sculpture of people I see no beauty or grace in it. I can imagine that the artist here doenst even make his art, like many others they create a concept such as a smaller version with sketches and some models prehaps etc then they commision it in their studio which is basically a load of tallented people who achually build and create the final peices. Even the old artists such as davinci did this (yeh i cant spell his name) but for a modern artist to do this I find it demeans what is truely art and what is total shit created by some stuck up asshole.
A dot on the middle of a blank canvas sold for millions but a street artist (not grafitist but a proper artist) cant sell their work in london. Peices or screwed up paper and paint rolls just genral bits of art supplies were on a trey in a exhibition were binned by a janator working there, he had no idea that this "display" was achually a peice of modern art worth a few million and it looked like trash again i think where is the justice in that? It looked so ordinary that a somone who worked there put it in the bin by accident. O and if you wondered what the artist did they re assembled it the next morning - as you can see the tallent required is one of a monky!

OK, OK, OK. I get the point. As I said in the first post, I'm not in to art. I was just impressed by the sculptures. Obviously some of you know art better than I do. ;-)

Ahh but "art" has to be different to everyone imo, i would say this IS art, at least to Tranquil because it captured his mind. I like it as well, you can see the skill thats gone into it, wether its studio produced or not someone had the initial idea and followed it through to its finish to create something that shows talant.
Whatever its class, it's definition is in a "proper" art world, the only thing imo, that art has to forfil,l is capturing the subjects imagination. If it does that, it's art.
