Interactive Kinetic Steampunk Sculptures by Marque Cornblatt
For centuries the use of tools by humans has been used as a marker - one of several gauges of that particular quality that define humans as unique and self-aware beings. Over the millennia, the development and use of certain tools has effected the quality of life so profoundly, that one can scarcely imagine life without their use. Language, social structures, medicine, electricity, mass communication.
There exists in our culture the promise of technological solutions to every need, problem and issue associated with the human condition, from the basic needs of food and shelter, to more sophisticated requirements of the human animal - fast food, financial credit, internet dating, artificial hearts, and MTV. Attempts to meet these needs with technology comes in a variety of forms - from AT & T providing lengthy and complex exchanges of information without the customer ever speaking with a live operator, to computer controlled medical implants monitoring and performing an increasing number of metabolic and physiological functions in the human body.
The conceptual cornerstones of "that which makes humans unique" continue to be challenged and defeated. Internally, in the case of medical advancements, and externally - as demonstrated by the increasing number of "human" interactions which no longer have two humans participating. Identity and self-awareness are no longer the exclusive terrain of human beings. We live in the age of the "transhuman" being.

Arava Sculptures - Israel/Palestine
July 2006
The desert of Arava in Israel is an arid desolate place, but for Australian sculptor Andrew Rogers, it's a source of inspiration. With the help of local architects and masons, the artist has created geoglyphs, massive land sculptures that are found in ancient cultures throughout the world. In a land which has seen the birth of religions and civilisations, stone has long been central to the relationship with God. Sacred stones represent a direct link with the divine but they're also the source of contention and conflict. This duality lies at the heart of Rogers's art. His aim is to celebrate the human spirit overcoming adversity. He is also interested in the relationship between the sculpture, the site and the environment. Most of his creations blend harmoniously into the landscape and can be best seen from the air while others tower dramatically over the surrounding desert. This beautifully shot film both reveals the original vision of an artist and the raw beauty of the Arava desert.

Emil Kazaz Recent Bronze Sculptures
Available Bronze Sculptures of Emil Kazaz
Born on January 14, 1953 in Gyumri, Armenia, Emil Kazaz was trained as an artist in the traditional academy style. Beginning at the age of seven, he studied sculpture at the local art school and attended the Mercurov Art School when he was 12. After moving to Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, he continued his studies at the Terlemezian Art College, which he finished in 1972, and the University of Fine Arts and Theater, from which he graduated in 1978 with honors. He settled in Los Angeles in 1980. His CV since then reads like any aspiring artist's dream come true: a steady stream of exhibitions in Europe, Asia, Russia, North and South America, Canada, and throughout the United States, along with international critical recognition, including the prestigious Lorenzo Medici medal from the Florence Biennale in 2003 and Grande Lorenzo il Magnifico (Medici) Prize in Sculpture from Florence Biennale 2007. Emil Kazaz lives and continues to work in Los Angeles.
