SculptCAD, a front runner in blending sculpture and CAD for
manufacturing and reverse engineering, is inviting artists to hang a
left from the utilitarian use of this technology and do what they do
when they do art. "Wouldn't it be interesting to see what these
artists would come up with, if they had access to 3D tools." mused
Nancy Hairston, Founder of SculptCAD. An idea was born : SculptCAD
Rapid Artists Project.

The experience is apt to be transformative, expanding the creative
process and arousing a shift in thinking about how art comes to take
it's place in the physical realm. A very, very contemporary approach
to art. Why "Rapid"? Rapid Prototype Printing, 3D Scanning and Digital
Sculpture. New approaches to art making and art output. High speed. On
Demand. It allows the impossible to be possible. The SculptCAD Rapid
Artists will show the possibilities they discover.

The digital sculptures created for the SculptCAD Rapid Artists Project
will be displayed in May 2010 at the SME Rapid Show in Anaheim, CA and
in Dallas in the Summer of 2010 and benefit the Booker T. Washington
High School for the Performing and Visual Arts (Arts Magnet). Many of
the participating artists are alumni of Arts Magnet and all exemplify
the innovative spirit to make this show a noteworthy success. We
believe this groundbreaking project is consistent with the
contemporary vision of the extraordinary Dallas Arts District.
