Un-Bee-lieveable Artwork

Posted by Queuebot in Animal, Arts & Crafts on February 24, 2009 at 6:21 pm

This is some incredible artwork by Hilary Berseth, and a few thousand helpers…

Artists from Rodin to Warhol to Mark Kostabi have outsourced the construction of their work. Hilary Berseth goes them one better: He constructs basic frameworks of wire and wax, then lets teams of tiny yellow-and-black art fabricators finish the job. “I knew they were ordered and regimented,” the Pennsylvania artist says about his honeybees, which built the three otherworldly sculptures on view at Eleven Rivington. “I had an intuition that I’d be able to organize that, architecturally.”
