About The Artwork

Photograph of 'Brain Sculpture, Cerebrate' 1995. The sculpture sold to David Bowie in London, 1995. David Bowie's Art Collection is currently on tour and in November 2016 is to be auctioned at Sotheby's. The plastic brain stands about five and a half feet tall and is centred on a revolving plinth. A stainless steel cabinet beneath houses a motor programmed to control the spinning brain speeding up and slowing down on timed intervals. The plastic brain is protected by a protective biosphere as water inside the surrounding cylinder rises and falls in a cascading vortex stretching, distorting and expanding the plastic brain. Cerebral stretched parameters. Einstein is quoted as saying "Imagination is more important than knowledge". The Brain Sculpture, Cerebrate is a reflection of Einstein's statement.
