Happened upon My Plastic Heart today while on the LES to see the new Disney doc, Waking Sleeping Beauty — totally recommend it by the way. They’ve got a great show going on featuring custom Sketchbots… nutso. If you’re in NYC between now and April 23rd, check it out.
I got incredibly lucky and stumbled into GRNY at the right time a few weeks ago, just as an interim art show was being launched. Some amazing work was there – a little bit of everything. But the highlight by far, at least for this camper, were some custom David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim pieces. David has been customizing some of his My Friend Dave kaiju and I scored the only lemon-lime one at the show. And as incredible as that piece is, Sun-Min’s resin Monster #14 is out-of-sight. I’ve never owned a resin piece before so the sheer weight of this guy is shocking. It’s definitely not a toy – it has the heft of a statue and it’s gorgeous.
