LATEST: Hurwitz selected by Guinness Book of Records. The worlds smallest animal sculpture...
Throughout the ages physics has sought to explain the nature of matter both on Earth and in the heavens. Millennia ago, the Greek philosophers posited the existence of atoms, thereby launching a journey through the centuries, which in due course confirmed their existence and have made them tools of our everyday life.

For the 2018 Zingst Photography Festival, Olympus unveils their commission of a work by sculptor Jonty Hurwitz. The work is part of the Art Path in Zingst which brings together over 60,000 artists and photographers from around the world, encouraging them to take photographs of works of sculpture that challenge their photographic and creative skills.

Artcatto is the brainchild of Gillian Catto, who after 30 successful years as the owner of an internationally recognised and respected Gallery in London, decided to settle in the Algarve.
Gillian Catto developed a reputation, which is second to none. She was responsible for launching the careers of artists who have subsequently become household names, such as Jack Vettriano. His solo exhibition at her Gallery helped to create a global demand for his work, which skyrocketed in value virtually overnight.

I look back on my own childhood and marvel at how the line between imagination and reality was so blurred. Somehow I needed to try and capture that complex relationship in this artwork. Can you still see the imaginary with your own eyes? Can you still believe in the existence of daydreams nurtured in your own mind? At what point did you accept reality as what you see? This sculpture explores the relationship between fantasy and reality in the mind of a child.
From the 7th October 2016, the new work 'Hand That Caught Me Falling' by scientific sculptor Jonty Hurwitz is on show at Walton Fine Arts Gallery. The work is part of Hurwitz's catroptic ananmorphosis series and explores how he was "saved" during a dark period of his life.

Walton Fine Arts is a Contemporary Art Gallery in London and Online, specialized in Modern, Contemporary, Pop and Street Art. Dealing in original paintings, lithographs, fine art prints and sculptures by artists including Bacon, Banksy, Chagall, Hirst, Indiana, Leger, Lichtenstein, Miro, Picasso, Warhol and Wesselmann.
The gallery is on Walton Street, one of London’s most exclusive locations featuring high end boutiques, restaurants, cafes and bars, conveniently located between Knightsbridgeand South Kensington, just a minute walk from Brompton Cross and its amenities.
Walton Fine Arts is Bambi Street Artist’s original gallery and represents Lawrence Schiller‘s legendary photographs of Marilyn Monroe for Europe
A set of stunning photographs that reveal the natural beauty in science are set to go on show to the public.
The 100 incredible images are the shortlisted entries for the Royal Photographic Society's International Images for Science competition and highlight how important photography is for academics.
The show includes a photo of one of the smallest 3D sculptures ever made, a surfing girl that measures just 150 micrometres tall, taken by Stefan Diller. The sculpture was made by nano-artist Jonty Hurwitz using a 3D printing technique called multiphoton lithography which tightens polymer resin with infrared light one 3D pixel at a time.

Methods of forming and patterning materials at the nano- and microscales are finding increased use as a medium of artistic expression, and as a vehicle for communicating scientific advances to a broader audience. While sharing many attributes of other art forms, miniaturized art enables the direct engagement of sensory aspects such as sight and touch for materials and structures that are otherwise invisible to the eye. The historical uses of nano-/microscale materials and imaging techniques in arts and sciences are presented. The motivations to create artwork at small scales are discussed, and representations in scientific literature and exhibitions are explored. Examples are presented using semiconductors, microfluidics, and nanomaterials as the artistic media; these utilized techniques including micromachining, focused ion beam milling, two-photon polymerization, and bottom-up nanostructure growth. Finally, the technological factors that limit the implementation of artwork at miniature scales are identified, and potential future directions are discussed. As research marches toward even smaller length scales, innovative and engaging visualizations and artistic endeavors will have growing implications on education, communication, policy making, media activism, and public perception of science and technology.
