Great, just what we need: more reasons to love Brad Pitt<\/h3>\n

If it were possible, it seems like Brad Pitt is blossoming in his 50s, near 60s. I remember that it was about a decade ago when the actor first mentioned his plans for retiring from films. Though it hasn’t happened yet, around the same time, Pitt also randomly brought up his interest in making furniture, which he did indeed debut in 2012 via an eccentric collection of chairs, tables, and other home pieces made in collaboration with renowned furniture designer Frank Pollaro. So technically, we know that Mr. Pitt has been long smitten by the 3D arts, and yet we act like we’re shocked when it’s revealed that someone this incredibly good-looking and one of the most versatile actors of our time can actually mould a pretty sick scene on plaster.  <\/p>\n

Two weeks ago, Brad debuted his sculptural art with buddies Nick Cave and Thomas Houseago at Finland’s Sara Hildén Art Museum. Houseago, who’s actually more of the headliner of this group exhibition, is a British-American artist known for his sculptures in plaster, rebar, bronze and wood. For this exhibition, the sculptor is also presenting large-scale paintings—a relatively newfound romance apparently—focusing on the subjects of nature, landscape, cosmic unity, and the cycle of life. <\/p>\n

Australian musician and long-time friend of Pitt’s, Nick Cave contributes to the exhibition a series of 17 glazed ceramic figurines depicting the life of the Devil in 17 phases. Like Brad, Cave is debuting his talents in this field for the first time. <\/p>\n
