World Tiniest Sculpture Exhibit by Willard Wigan Begins Today At Midtown Gallery

Wigan is a world famous as a micro-sculptor whose art is so tiny you need an electron microscope to see it. Some of his latest work is no bigger than a human blood cell.

If the prospect of checking out a sculpture exhibit so tiny you can't really see it with your own eyes appeals to you. Among the sculptures which you will need help identifying are Cameron Diaz, a tiny Mega Yacht, Little Miss Muffet and Cupid, which is being called the smallest piece of art ever created. Cupid measures 385.77 micron (equal to one millionth of a meter).

Despite their size, Wigan's pieces cost big money, ranging from $25,000 to over $100,000. If you simply to tell everybody you bought a Wigan sculpture, hold out your palm, and tell them it's right there, but it's so small they can't see it.
