They look like the real thing – a violin, a hammer, a telephone, a chair, a human skull. But they’re deformed in seemingly impossible ways – twisted, elongated, transformed. They are the work of American artist Robert Lazzarini (born 1965), whose art merges extreme realism with extreme distortion.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lazzarini recreates familiar objects to scale out of their original materials, while making them look bizarrely different. A Virginia Museum of Fine Arts exhibition of his work will be on view in Richmond from Oct. 25, 2003 to Jan. 4, 2004. This will be the first one-person museum exhibition of Lazzarini’s sculptures and will feature his major sculptures from 1997 to the present.<\/p>\n

“In some ways, they are like visual puzzles – challenging, but at the same time extremely beautiful,” says Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Director Dr. Michael Brand. (right: “skull (ii),” 2000, by Robert Lazzarini (American, b. 1965) is made of resin, bone and pigment and measures19 by 3 by 4 inches. It was made in an edition of six plus two artist’s copies.
