Pot-Luck-Humor - Chewing-Gum Sculptures...

 

Chewing-Gum Sculptures...     Italian artist Maurizio Savini has spent the last ten years creating amazing sculptures out of thousands of pieces of bright pink chewing gum. Chewing gum may not be the most common media of the art world, but to 39-year-old Maurizio Savini it's the most versatile material available. It's easy to manipulate when warm, and can be cut with a knife, just like clay. Regardless of what many may think, chewing gum sculpting is an established art form, recognized all over the world, and Savini's artworks are eagerly awaited by critics and connoisseurs, alike. Disgusting as it may seem to some people, Maurizio Savini uses thousands of chewed up pieces of bubble gum for each of his sculptures. He molds them into the desired shapes and when the whole thing is done, he fixes the sculpture with formaldehyde and antibiotics. The amazingly detailed chewing gum sculptures of Maurizio Savini have sold for up to $60,000 each.
