Is this bronze sculpture floating in mid air? [Amazing Photo of the Day]

December 29, 2012 4 Email article | Print article

How many dotTechies are artists? I am not, but I (hope) I am sophisticated enough to appreciate good art. …Oh who am I kidding, I couldn’t tell the difference between a Picasso and horse turd even if I tried. I can, however, be amazed at the work of French sculptor Bruno Catalano who likes to build sculptures without a middle section, making his works look like they are floating in mid air. The following is one of his creations — check it out:

Amazing! And, no, it isn’t floating in mid air. The top part of the sculpture is clearly connected to the left leg via the bag.

    This is fabulous, Ashraf — where DO you find these things? I’m off to find out more about this artist & his work. And btw, I have 2 horses — there is a difference between a Picasso & the by-product of said horses, (albeit a small one, in my personal opinion).
