Just found this Chapman Brothers video, I remember the installation but didn't know someone shot a video of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJrbSJ5RSsc |

That's a really beautiful installation, I'm curious I know I could just look it up and find out but maybe you just know. Do they specialize in models, or was this just something they did for a show? Again that was really beautiful work I'd love to see this work in person. |

I don't think they actually specialize in models as I've seen other works from the Chapmans that are quite different from this diorama. Here's their official website: http://www.jakeanddinoschapman.com/ |

Depends what you mean when you say 'models' ... Their work is certainly three-dimensional. Early pieces were based on mutated shop mannequins, esp of children, which led to hysterical accusations of pedophilia & their section at the "Sensations" exhibition being limited to over 18's: ![]() However, I distinctly remember one piece being an obvious 3D reworking of Goya's famous "Disasters of War" series, a theme they've returned to time & again: ![]() I fucking love them. "Explaining Christians To Dinosaurs", lol: ![]()

Yeah, I mean models as miniatures. They definitely work a lot with sculptures and installations. I also love them, among my favourite artists out there. |

I saw their stuff at the Sensation Show at the Brooklyn Museum of Art in 1999 (twice!) That was an incredible show! |
