Impressionism
Impressionism sculpture is a style of art that is characterized by a number of features, including:
- Unfinished appearance: sculptures are often left unfinished, which can create a sense of realism and strength.
- New materials: sculptors used new materials in their work, such as real fabric and lead tubs.
- Loose finish: Impressionism sculptures are often left with a rough finish.
- Focus on motion: sculptures often focus on fleeting motion and the effect of movement.
- Modern subject matter: sculptures often depict modern life.
Auguste Rodin is considered a leader in Impressionism sculpture. His sculptures, such as Burghers of Calais and Walking Man, are known for capturing the essence of a moment passing through time.
The Impressionist movement began in 1874 with the formation of the Anonymous Society of Painters, Sculptors, Printmakers, etc. The movement was characterized by a rejection of established styles and a focus on depicting modern life. The term “Impressionism” comes from the title of Claude Monet’s painting Impression, Sunrise.
