I stumbled upon an art exhibit this week here in Nashville by a local artist who creates ceramic head figures. Apparently the artist has a somewhat liberty perspective because he created a ceramic head of Ron and other anti-establishment individuals.


Here is the pic of the sculpture:

Ron is in interesting company because he also did one of anti-establishment individuals such as Nikola Tesla (http://www.joeseigenthaler.com/Nikola_Tesla.html), George Orwell (http://www.joeseigenthaler.com/George_Orwell.html), Howard Zinn (http://www.joeseigenthaler.com/Howard_Zinn.html) and Ralph Nader (http://www.joeseigenthaler.com/Ralph_Nader.html).


Included in the exhibit are those on the 'other side' with Edward Bernays (http://www.joeseigenthaler.com/Edward_Bernays.html), David Rockefeller (http://www.joeseigenthaler.com/David_Rockefeller.html), and Jacob Rothschild (http://www.joeseigenthaler.com/Jacob_Rothschild.html).




It's currently on display at the art gallery in Nashville and he is asking $7k for anyone who wants to buy it.




Here is information about the exhibit and the artist:

It bothers me that his head is mounted on the wall like a trophy buck.

art is subjective. My opinion of that piece is that it sucks.

Anyone in here going to buy it?...Matt?

Yeah. Dr. Paul look more like Pennywise the Clown than an honored stateman.

lol... in context, and in person, it is not as bad as it looks on film.

No, I don't think it ugly because I was looking at you. I think it ugly because I was looking at it.

If anything, you make it look slightly better.

From a chain, which in turn is hung from a stick, which in turn is attached to his selfie camera.

They should buy a few as gifts too and send one to Glenn Beck.

If he isn't mocking, then he is truly a shitty artist. If he was looking to make RP look extremely frightening, he's not bad.

Well, why did he make his eyes so buggy and red, then, if it was supposed to be complimentary?

After you see the work up close and in detail, your opinion will change.

I've seen Ron in person several times and that is NOT what he looked like.
