I hate to break it to you, but you missed out on seeing a very cool show at the Natural History Museum in Basel, Switzerland. Oh well, so did I. It was called “Animatus” and it featured the work of Korean artist Hyungkoo Lee, who creates exquisite and intricate skeletons of cartoon characters.

Here’s more of his work from the Arario New York gallery site. Here is some brainy text that explains it.

Thanks to Michael Sporn for alerting me to this work by writing about it on Splog.

After the jump, a video tour of Lee’s work in the Venice Biennale 2007.
