Museum of Robots, Eric Joyner's "Robots and Donuts" Art!

Hey!

It's been a while since I posted something just plain fun here, and here goes!

My friend Gia introduced me today to the Museum of Robots, in the Kubrick sim (here's a SLurl), and I had a blast looking around, especially in the museum art gallery, OMG!!!

Artist Eric Joyner has obviously spent years creating his real world paintings, and images of those are on display through the month of August in the art gallery of this clever and comprehensive build, an homage to robots in literature, television/cinema, and the visual arts.

I'm going share some snapshots at a flickr set, with the caveat that these are low-res snapshots of very good scans/photographs of real world art. That said, you MUST visit this gallery to see some of the best use of Second Life for art display that I have yet found. I particularly love the audio commentary that accompanies many of the images. Want to hear the artist, in his own words and in his own voice, describing the painting? Just click on the pink donut!

The artist's website is here.
