"The sculptures of Miguel Ortiz Berrocal may be found in art museums, galleries, and private collections around the world. Berrocal is best known in the puzzle community for his sculpture 'multiples', signed and numbered limited editions typically consisting of many ingeniously interlocking metal elements. Indeed, the numerous mechanisms employed throughout Berrocal’s work are works of art in themselves. Each such sculpture is accompanied by a book detailing disassembly and reassembly of the sculpture. Needless to say, the puzzles posed by the works of Berrocal are not meant for those easily frustrated. I have found myself cheating on reassembly by consulting these books much more than I would prefer. Berrocal died in May of 2006." -Jim Strayer
