Giacometti Sculpture Becomes Most Expensive Work Ever to Sell at Auction

via ARTINFO on Yahoo Finance:

A rare life-size and life-time bronze cast, from 1961, of Alberto Giacometti's L'Homme Qui Marche I, better known as "Walking Man," improbably became the most expensive work of art ever to sell at auction today, selling for £65,001,250 ($104,327,006).

Aluminum T-Rex skull in the Local paper!

Our Aluminum, Life-size, Bronze colored T-rex skull is a featured attraction at the Dino Days exibit at the Delaware Natural History Museum. The local paper did a little write up about the exibit and what did we see?! Our piece as the featured article picture! We have many different skulls done in bronze but this is the only one that was created in aluminum. These skull sculptures are great for animal or natural history lovers and make a unique addition to any collection. They're hand cast in bronze, or in the case of this piece, aluminum, and hand colored.

T-Rex featured at Dino Days in the Delaware Museum of Natural History

We recently donated a lifesize T-Rex skull, and some of our other fossil skulls, to the Delaware Museum of Natural History for their Dino Days exibit. We were pleasantly surprised when they sent us their quarterly program and our T-Rex was on the cover! They also did a little write up about us on the inside. We're one of only a very few companies that makes fossil skulls in bronze, most are made from resin, and we're certainly the only one that makes these sculptures available at the prices we offer. Most resin castings cost more than one of our bronze skulls. We like ours because it allows people to interact and touch them without fear of damage.
