Ruth Bonneville / Winnipeg Free Press Winnipeg Art Gallery curator Andrew Kear (front) and PR coordinator Tammy Sawatzky, take a close look at Ron Mueck's exhibit of a newborn baby titled "A Girl", which is startlingly large yet very life-like at the WAG Friday. Mueck is a UK-based Australian artist that creates realistic yet enigmatic sculptures that portray humans at key stages in life, from birth through middle age, to death. The works are either monumental in scale or undersized.
