Sculptures were…

will evaluate and analyze the work of Henry Moore. Some of his work is display at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. I will be analyzing two of his sculptures, the “Torso” and the “Relief No. 1. These two pieces are unique in their own little ways. I hope after reading this paper you can get a feel of what I can interpret from these two sculptures. Henry Moore was born July 30, 1898 at Castleford in Yorkshire. The seventh of eight children of a mining engineer and homemaker, Moore was…

between sculpture and space, he drew inspiration from the postminimalist works of Richard Serra (where the sculpture is reduced to its most fundamental features) and from the landscape art of Walter de Maria and Robert Smithson. One of the few pieces Gormley made that is not of the adult- size figure is…

Behind every great artist is a muse. And the mythical painter Picasso had plenty of them. Throughout his life, the artist had two wives, six mistresses, and lots of lovers. Although his relationship with women was complicated, many of them served as the inspiration for the artist’s exceptionally prolific body of work. It can be said that Picasso’s style changed as often as he changed his companions. In this paper I want to explore the main differences between two of his main muses: Marie-Thérèse…

The art piece Metamorphosis by Eliza Au is a complex assortment of seven large white structures on a wall that require keen observational skills to better understand what their function is. Metamorphosis was created in 2017 and uses wood, paper, and ceramic as it’s medium. The base of these structures is a large white circle made of wood.

Wooden Carvings vs. Stone Carvings Wood has been used in most of the cultures for carving the…

Claassen’s “Untitled (Large Man) is evident as soon as you see both of them in the same room together. George Segal’s sculpture, which he made in 1981, depicts an older, blue colored woman sitting in a chair and staring at the floor. The sculpture Tom Clause made in 1999 appears to be a large, inflated man sitting with his back against the wall and looking down at his lap. Both sculptures are humanoid, but they are so uniquely stylized that they appear to be completely different creatures.…

The Statue of Gudea is a relatively small figure carved from a black stone called diorite. It depicts a Neo-Sumerian king in a seated position with his hands clasped at chest level. The king is clothed in garb similar to a toga with an adorned, short cylindrical hat. His expression is solemn and his posture is sacred and welcoming. His physique is tone.

of his creation, he states that the water around the sculpture represents changes in our lives. The tide is rising throughout the video, so it can be assumed that the water is representing changes that engulf us, or deprive us of air.

It could be demonstrating endurance and survival through hardships because the sculpture never disintegrated within the length of the…
