5th Place Tie
Raven 2*
by Dan Koyanagi

MoA, UBC, Vancouver

This sculpture is called "Raven and the First Men" by Haida artist Bill Reid. See my entry in the Exhibition gallery for more information. This is one of my favorite works of art by any artist.

Beautiful sculpture - I love the low-key lighting! Interesting story too - it looks more like he's squishing them into the clamshell than enticing them out.

I'm glad you decided to include a full sculpture image, Dan. Nice capture of a most interesting piece of artwork. Thanks again, for the story behind the sculpture.---Deb

Dan, this is a very interesting sculpture & myth, especially how the men are being coaxed by a raven out of a clamshell. I really like the subdued lighting, the color, and the dark background...nice capture of mood here. Nice photo. MFC
