JOHN WILLIAMS: Life and Work

[Incanus 5,884]

Looks quite nifty I must say!

Who is the sculptor if I may ask?

[Bespin Copilot 10,514]

Not shure about the pose... and the head size.

P.S. Miguel, you can now post your comment that will say: "I actually love the pose and the head size."

[Incanus 5,884]

Not sure about the pose... and the head size.

What?!!! It is of course the aggressive John Williams we so seldom see.

[Miguel Andrade 1,696]

Honestly, I don't like it a bit.

[Koray Savas 2,259]

That thing is fucking hilarious. I want one just as a proof that something so ridiculous exists.

[BloodBoal 8,025]

This is the best Williams' sculpture I've ever seen.

[Incanus 5,884]

This is the best Williams' sculpture I've ever seen.

It is also the only one you have seen, isn't it?

[Sharkissimo 1,977]

It's a homunculus!

Just realised it costs 211 quid. Fucking hell.

[BloodBoal 8,025]

This is the best Williams' sculpture I've ever seen.

Exactly!

[Miguel Andrade 1,696]

There was one posted before, a quite nice one in fact, but I'm too lazy to look for it...

[Jay 45,144]

Uhhh

[Incanus 5,884]

No love for the shouting giant head John Williams?

[Miguel Andrade 1,696]

This one:

And this one:

I'm pretty sure this two were posted in the board before.

[Sharkissimo 1,977]

Those two are awful. At least this latest one has a sense of humour.

[indy4 160]

I really like the new one. I would definitely get it if it were less expensive (ie $20-30), and obviously made of a less expensive metal.

[Sharkissimo 1,977]

What about a John Williams jack-in-the-box (john-in-the-box)?

[Code 000. Destruct. 0. 4,262]

This whole thread is ridiculous. John Williams bronze sculptures? Really?

Everyone knows the only appropriate material for a John Williams sculpture is marble. He should also be giving the "I'll try!" thumbs up.

[indy4 160]

What about a John Williams jack-in-the-box (john-in-the-box)?

A John-in-a-box sounds great!

[Thor 9,334]

Ha, ha, hilarious!

I'm reminded of the cover of Gramophone a few years ago, where they had this bust of John Williams. That, at least, looked pretty decent. I have the magazine,but couldn't find a linkable picture online.

[King Mark 3,907]

lol

looks like a bobblehead

[Luke Skywalker 2,320]

The sculpture is a fine bobblehead... and i think that was the intent... Aren't they pretty popular?

But it's too expensive, i think

[hornist 1,242]

If it was made out of gold, I would definitely buy this.

Bronze. Meh.

[Bespin Copilot 10,514]

Ho wow, John Williams has teeth. Never saw them before.

[Luke Skywalker 2,320]

Ho wow, John Williams has theets. Never saw them before.

I had to google that word...

And i was bewildered by the Williams connection...

I suppose you meant TEETH...

[Damien F 1,995]

Oh my goodness!

The sculptor perfectly captured that infamous moment during the Pops when a violinist accidently jabbed him in the crotch with his bow!

[nightscape94 968]

It's unintentionally hilarious, so of course I want one. Not at that price though. His expression is how I imagine his reaction to Gustavo Santaolalla taking Oscar gold.

[Andrés Valvader 21]

It's a homunculus!

Just realised it costs 211 quid. Fucking hell.

I beg you to remove your profile photo. I ask out of respect to the artist who created it. It is also a copyrighted work. Thank you.

[Andrés Valvader 21]

Looks quite nifty I must say!

Who is the sculptor if I may ask?

Andrés Valverde Jiménez (1958). Spanish sculptor. Resident in Seville.

[Jim 6,167]

Why on earth is the head twice the size it should be? Is this a joke?

[Wojo 2,458]

Is there money in bronze sculptures of composers? I'm saving my money for the bronzed John Williams. It'll prevent all decomposition.

[Koray Savas 2,259]

Should have been carbonite.

[Wojo 2,458]

As a material, carbonite is fictitious. The term also applies to an explosive. But as the famous carbonite pose of Han Solo in distress, it's hard to top the one of George.

[Xander Harris 9,059]

I don't dislike it. I just want to make that clear. But the expression on the face is hilarious.

[BernieTheDog 2]

Is there an English copy of his book?

 

[Jay 45,144]

Where did you dig up this old fossil?

[Scarpia 132]

Unforgettable old fossil, to be honest.
