Art gallery loses its head, displays plinth - Yahoo! News
Art gallery loses its head, displays plinth - Yahoo! News: "One of Britain's most prestigious art galleries put a block of slate on display, topped by a small piece of wood, in the mistaken belief it was a work of art.
The Royal Academy included the chunk of stone and the small bone-shaped wooden stick in its summer exhibition in London.
But the slate was actually a plinth -- a slab on which a pedestal is placed -- and the stick was designed to prop up a sculpture. The sculpture itself -- of a human head -- was nowhere to be seen.
'I think the things got separated in the selection process and the selectors presented the plinth as a complete sculpture,' the work's artist David Hensel told BBC radio."

Local boy makes art prints
Segura Publishing thrives in topsy-turvy business:
"The print art world can be a risky place to invest your dollars. Sometimes you win and sometimes you can be financially devastated. Joe Segura, a master printer, artist and owner of Segura Publishing Co. of Mesa, has experienced both the ups-and-downs of the print art industry."
Segura attended SIU in Carbondale.
