Art Description: Jeff Muhs' compelling concrete bust of Marie Antoinette illustrates the highest degree of control of the material that he has been able to achieve in making these sculptures in one pour. He used bread bags, women’s undergarments, t-shirts, sheets and a neck corset to get the desired attitude and posture and shapes of the hair and dress related to historical renderings of the last queen of France, who was unceremoniously beheaded during the French Revolution.
Medium Used: Concrete and Nylon Rope
