For Atsushi Adachi, newspapers serve a whole different purpose


Don't throw out that newspaper! At least, not if you live near Atsushi Adachi of Japan. This young man is an artist who makes miniature sculptures of objects using old newspaper clippings and articles. He started in 2006 with a replica of the Japanese battleship Yamato, and has since created cars, airplanes, insects, astronauts and marine vessels. If you're in New York, be sure to drop by at WhiteBox Gallery in East Harlem. Adachi's work is part of an exhibition titled Emerging Tokyo that's on view until December 7, 2019.
