Ron Mueck - Gallery of Modern Art



Le sculpteur hyperréaliste Ron Mueck expose à GoMA . Ses sculptures reproduisent le corps humain dans ses plus minutieux détails grâce à la silicone, la résine polyester et la peinture à l'huile.

Je suis particulièrement émuee par ce moment figé dans du silicone et de la résine plyester. C'est un moment de concentration, peut-être de douleur ou alors d'émotion, c'est peut-être un moment de contraction mais c'est si vrai. Pour viser aussi juste à mon sens il faut vraiment être fou de l'humanité.





Last weekend I was lucky enough to see some sculptures by the Australian born hyperrealist sculptor Ron Mueck. His massive, hyperreal figures are obsessively detailed, down to every pore and wrinkle. A new exhibition of Mueck's work opened in Queensland's Museum of Modern Art from the 8th May to 1st August.



Wild Man, as viewer i experience a level of unease that is borne of a voyeuristic awkwardness, as though i have invaded some kind of personal space. However, i also identify with the human condition this moment express.




Dead dad, is a hyper-realistic sculpture of Mueck’s dead father, naked. This extraordinary work has for me a huge emotional power.
