Master Of 3D Pavement Art- 25 Kurt Wenner’s Art Images

Kurt Wenner is an artist best known for his invention of 3D pavement art. Wenner was inspired by anamorphic perspective, but had to invent an entirely new geometry in order to create his astonishing 3D pavement art images. Kurt Wenner produced his first commissioned mural at the age of sixteen and by sixteen to seventeen he was earning his living as a graphic artist. He attended both Rhode Island School of Design and Art Center College of Design, before working for NASA as scientific illustrator.

In 1982 he left NASA and moved to Italy to study figurative drawing and art. Over the years Wenner’s work became known throughout the country and in 1991 he was commissioned to create a work of art to honor the visit of Pope John Paul II to the city of Mantua. Wenner lived in Rome for 25 years before returning to the United States.

Religious Thought 20

Self-important, obstinate, swept away by the pride of wealth, they ostentatiously perform sacrifices without any regard for their purpose. Egotistical, violent, arrogant, lustful, angry, envious of everyone, they abuse my presence within their own bodies and in the bodies of others.

- Bhagavad Gita 16:1318

__._,_.___

Here he's tormented he's tormented hereafter. In both worlds the wrong-doer's tormented. He's tormented at the thought, 'I've done wrong.' Having gone to a bad destination, he's tormented all the more. Here he delights he delights hereafter. In both worlds the merit-maker delights. He delights at the thought, 'I've made merit.' Having gone to a good destination, he delights all the more.

- Dhammapada, 17-18, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu

दोस्तों ने पूछा कि भैया, कौन सी कंपनी है तेरी और तनख्वाह कितनी है?
