Brian Jungen at the Art Gallery of Alberta

Brian Jungen is a Canadian artist specializing in 'found art'. Brian takes common every day objects and re-works them into the most incredible sculptures. There is an exhibition of his work currently at the Art Gallery of Alberta. Patrons are invited to take photos of the exhibit - not a common thing in an art gallery.

I have this very cool app on my iPhone; it replicates the effect of photos taken with a cheap plastic camera commonly seen in the 60's. The photos have this found-in-the-back-of-the-desk-drawer-after-all-these-years quality. I took several shots of the 3 Brian Jungen sculptures on display at the AGA using this camera app - this is the first; a detail photo of 'Carapace'; constructed out of houshold garbage containers.
