Brad Pitt makes surprise debut as a sculptor at Finland art gallery
The Guardian says Brad Pitt has unveiled his sculptures in a lakeside art museum in Finland as part of the actor’s first-ever public art exhibition that came as an unexpected surprise to the Nordic country.
Located in Finland’s third-largest city of Tampere, this is the first time the “largely self-taught” US star presented his sculptures to the public, the Sara Hildén Art Museum said.
Pitt’s sculptures were revealed by the 58-year-old actor himself on Saturday as part of a larger exhibition by British artist Thomas Houseago, alongside a ceramic series by Australian musician Nick Cave.
“For Nick and I this is a new world and our first entry. It just feels right,” Pitt told Finnish broadcaster Yle at the opening ceremony.
