Artistic Bones

Being new to blogging I started looking around different blogs and discovered an exhibit all about Skulls in one page, and one about real human skeletons being used to stop violence. Bones are interesting because not only are they part of your anatomy but have also been used in art for different purposes.

In the first exhibit the main focus is the cranium. The artists drew cranium in different ways to show their artistic views of a subject.

In the second page bones were used as a way to try to stop violence. The artist and photographer Francois Robert used real bones to make pictures of war items such as guns and tanks. He wanted to show that sometimes when war occurs the only real remains are skeletons.
