The Ghostly Last Supper
The Goldwell Open Air Museum is an outdoor sculpture park near the ghost town of Rhyolite Nevada. Albert Szukalski came to the Nevada desert in 1984 to create what is perhaps the most unique piece of his career. This sculpture, The Last Supper, consists of ghostly life-sized forms arranged as in the painting The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci. Szukalski molded his shapes by draping plaster-soaked burlap over live models until the plaster dried enough to stand on its own.
