invisible sculpture isn\u2019t \u2018nothing\u2019 but instead, it is a vacuum which is nothing more than a place that is full of energy that even if it is empty or there\u2019s nothing left to it, it still has a weight that contains energy that is condensed and turned into particles.<\/p>\n<p>Its creator, the 67-year-old painter and sculptor Salvatore Garau imposed that the sculpture must be placed in an open space with five feet by five feet area. It should also be on display in a private residence. And because it isn&#8217;t there, it may be exhibited in any light.<\/p>\n<h2>First Invisible Sculpture Sold But Not The First One:<\/h2>\n<p>Though this is the first invisible artwork of Garau that was sold, it is not his first immaterial sculpture. Last February, Garau exhibited another invisible sculpture named Buddha in Contemplation, near the entrance to the Gallerie d&#8217;Italia on the Piazza Della Scala in Milan.<\/p>\n<p>Garau even shared a video of the &#8220;statue&#8221; on his Instagram account. But the video only shows where the sculpture is located. Garau said that it may not be visible but it exists and is even made with spirit and air.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-13264-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/my1wifi-home.b-cdn.net\/videos\/invisible-statue.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/my1wifi-home.b-cdn.net\/videos\/invisible-statue.mp4\">https:\/\/my1wifi-home.b-cdn.net\/videos\/invisible-statue.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p><sub>Invisible Sculture Public Display<\/sub><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Meanwhile, he placed AFRODITE CRIES in front of the New York Stock Exchange this week.
