A Splash of Color by Rackat

Hi Rackat...ain't I lucky..they assigned your photo to me..ha FIRST IMPRESSION: Horrible shot...what were you thinking???? COMPOSITION: Totally off. It would have worked much better if it were upside down...and reversed horizontaly. TECHNICAL: Focus is toooo sharp. ARTISTIC: Completely boring to look at. OVERALL: I am very disappointed in you, Rackat. Best of luck in the future. Cheers...zadore. ...and now the serious part :) I don't have to repeat what everyone has already mentioned about this photo. The prettiest woodpile I've ever seen.

My dad emailed me this photo today.

The prettiest woodpile I've ever seen

I think it's just lovely. In fact, I'm not sure I'd have the heart to take the sculpture apart, even if I did need the firewood. Dad didn't know where the photo came from. Do any of you? I'd love to know whether it's the work of an artist, a creative cabin owner with a lot of free time—or even just a nice Photoshop job. UPDATE: Solved! Also, I just want to take a quick moment to clarify that, when I wrote "creative cabin owner with a lot of free time", I did not mean that as an insult.

The Book Surgeon (15 pieces)

Nothing inside the out-of-date encyclopedias, medical journals, illustration books, or dictionaries is relocated or implanted, only removed. Dettmer manipulates the pages and spines to form the shape of his sculptures. He also folds, bends, rolls, and stacks multiple books to create completely original sculptural forms. "My work is a collaboration with the existing material and its past creators and the completed pieces expose new relationships of the book’s internal elements exactly where they have been since their original conception," he says.

"The richness and depth of the book is universally respected yet often undiscovered as the monopoly of the form and relevance of the information fades over time.
