Little people

Berlin-based artist Sebastian Kusenberg (b.1958) is well known for his photographic work, but he is also a sculptor, and for the past 15 years has been working on a whimsical series of small wooden figures. Romantic and quietly comical, his "Little People" have been constructed with cuttings and scraps from his larger wooden sculptures, bits of wood which he has not altered, but has used as they are. The book features a text in 8 chapters by the well-known author Sten Nadolny. -- (from barnesandnoble.com)
