Thomas Dambo’s Trolls are in town! The “TROLLS: Save the Humans” exhibition at the Memphis Botanic Gardens features six of these larger-than-life sculptures displayed throughout the grounds. They are made entirely of recycled materials.
The trolls “made a pact to band together and help save the humans by rediscovering nature and teaching us how to live in harmony with the earth.”

"I’m delighted to have made an empty plinth that isn’t empty, where the exhibit itself is merely invisible."
(David Hensel 2006)

A British artist sends a sculpture to an internationally prestigious and open art exhibition. However, what the selectors actually accept for exhibition is not the jesmonite laughing head, but its slate plinth and bone-shaped wooden rest which had been accidentally separated from the sculpture during handling. The head, One Day Closer to Paradise, 2006 (Figure 1, p. 2), was duly returned to the bemused sculptor.
Rui Sasaki employs glass to document and preserve the nature of the present.

!["The sculptures can be classified into two distinct categories: one with simple geometric patterns and the other representing humanoid figures. The latter is the more interesting. All of the sculptures were modeled in a strongly expressionistic manner. Only the head and face of the human figures were modeled realistically, with strong brow arches, an elongated nose, and a wide, fish-like mouth. Hair, beard, arms, and hands can be seen on some of the figures in a stylized form. Many fish-like features are evident.[21] Along with the position these sculptures had in the house shrine, they suggest a connection with river gods.
