3D Printing at CES 2013

Wednesday 9 January 2013



3D printing is making a strong appearance at prestigious annual tech show CES, which runs until this Friday in Las Vegas. Artist Cosmo Wenman's distinctive approach, shown here, is to photograph marble or bronze busts in the British Museum, then use a Makerbot home printer to create fine art reproductions made of plastic.
