5,500 Toy Soldiers For 'Made In China'

August 31, 2012 - by specialK

Using more than 5,500 toy soldiers, artist Joe Black's 'Made in China' is the perfect description for this portrait. 'Made in China' is based on a photograph of a young Chinese soldier that was featured on the cover on Life Magazine in 1938. The all of the molded, colored plastic toy soldiers were manufactured in China, giving the title a literate meaning.
