Man, Design Toscano is THE tacky art source, I must say. I really want that psycho artist bust of Van Gogh! It is so weird, and sooo WRONG! A shining example of the taste crimes nowadays committed in new resin design genre: “Face of van Gogh” Wall Sculpture By Carlo Bronti (b. 1951) With all the vibrancy of the artist’s own self-portraits, this contemporary rendition by Venitian mask maker Carlo Bronti, takes van Gogh’s work into a new dimension. With the same thick brushstrokes the artist used in his self-portraits, this designer resin work translates the face of one of the world’s most immortal painters into art itself!!!
