Has there been more merchandise produced for any other character than Batman? Books have been written about the vast assortment of Batman merchandise and for 80 years, collectors have been enjoying Batman toys, statues and pop memorabilia from Gotham City to Japan and all across the world. Plastic Passion BATMAN showcases photographic and digital techniques, capturing action figures as still-life, showing imperfect details, models in macro, serious toys and poised statues - all intended as art, as portraiture, for fun and as something more profound than the fake-plastic-realism of their existence. The art of making and playing! Damian K. Sheiles
