I’ve long been a fan of The Scout and the videos they produce regarding the topic of craftsmanship. In their most recent feature they introduce us to the wood sculptor Josh Vogel of Blackcreek Mercantile & Trading Co.

Sometimes you come across something online and you think “I have to have that.” Unfortunately sometimes that happens on Kickstarter, where said thing simply may not be a reality. Fortunately, Joshua Harker’s Crania Anatomica project was so incredible, it was destined to be successfully funded and realized. The third most funded Arts project ever on Kickstarter, Harker’s delicately detailed 3D printed skull sculpture now sits happily on a shelf in my home and feels in person every bit as jaw-dropping as it looks in pictures. |

On view until August 14, Madison Square Park Conservancy's newest guest sculpture is Jaume Plensa's Echo. This monumental sculpture, in terms of both scale and impact, stands about 4-stories in the midst of the park, nestling itself among the surrounding buildings in New York. |
