In a description of an art exhibition.
I've seen some examples on the web and they seem to be sculptures sticking out of pictures (please excuse the unpoetic description!!). What would we call them in English?

: Just 5 hits on google, all of them of Italian origin. It is clear that there should be another term in the English-speaking countries

thanks - yes, 'pictosculpture' is someone's "creative" term - but not a bad one if there is no exact equivalent in English.
