Just finished reviewing a Sylvia Hyman show for Nashville Scene.
Hyman is a fine art ceramicist who specializes in trompe l’oeil sculpture. Hyman creates stoneware baskets that seem to be made of wood. She fashions letter envelopes out of porcelain complete with postmarked Andy Warhol stamps.
Our favorite of Hyman’s objets d’art are her MAD Magazine replicas. It’s true. Ceramic MAD Magazines. Too bad the fold-in becomes a shatter-in.
Not to worry…
Our appetite whetted, we took to the net to see what we could catch.
Here is an animated MAD Magazine TV special from 1974
Even better, check out this amazing, online MAD fold-in project after the jumping front snap kick…
