Canadian artist Evan Penny (born 1953) makes the kind of sculpture that is so realistic, so detailed and so plainly a demonstration of virtuoso ability that it can literally stop people in their tracks. Modeled with tremendous craftsmanship in aluminium, silicone, epoxy resin and pigments, his freestanding nude figures and portrait heads invite the viewer to examine every fleshy imperfection and intimate crevice. The twist in this extreme realism is their anamorphically skewed perspective, so that what appears to be a conventionally dimensioned figure from one angle turns out to be wildly distorted from another. Penny uses electronic image editing and 3D scanning to create these effects, which transform an initial experience of ultra-realism into a vertiginous encounter massively mediated by artifice and technology. This volume surveys Penny's sculptural works of the past three decades.

1. Aufl. Pennys hyperrealistische Figuren aus Aluminium, Silikon, Epoxidharz und Farbpigmentensind in ihrer Körperlichkeit von höchster sinnlicher Präsenz. Trotzdem wirkensie artifiziell. Der Künstler reflektiert mit ihnen das Menschenbild, das mit heutigerTechnik produziert wird. Fotografie, elektronische Bildbearbeitung, Offsetdruck und3-D-Scan sind die Mittel, mit denen er sich auseinandersetzt. So entstehen der Zweidimensionalitätentwachsende anamorphotische Skulpturen, dreidimensionale Köpfeaus dem Fernsehen oder gar Skulpturen, die auf einer Zeitachse verzerrt sind.Der Katalog erscheint anlässlich der ersten europäischen Museumsausstellung diesesbedeutenden kanadischen Bildhauers der Gegenwart.Evan Penny makes the kind of sculpture that is so realistic, so detailed and soobviously a display of skill that it literally stops people in their tracks. But this aloneisnt why the artists work grabs a viewer, holds onto their gaze and then begins tochoreograph their movements around the solid objects he has planted in their space.Pennys standing nude figures and portrait heads invite you to stare, to examine everywrinkle, bump, fleshy imperfection and intimate crevasse. Pennys lifelike figures,modelled with great craftsmanship out of aluminium, silicone, epoxy resin and pigments,have a physical, highly sensuous presence. Nevertheless, they seem artificial.The work reflects on how the human image is presented by modern technologies suchas photography, electronic image editing, offset printing and 3D scanning.
