Modern
Modern sculpture is a style of art that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and is characterized by a number of features, including:
-
Break from tradition: Modern sculpture broke away from traditional techniques and subjects, using new materials and forms to convey innovative ideas.
-
Abstraction: Sculptures often tend towards abstraction, with distorted and fragmented forms.
-
New materials: Sculptors experimented with new materials like metal, glass, and plastic, instead of the more traditional stone and bronze.
-
Emphasis on design: Sculptures often emphasize design, form, and volume.
-
Movement: Sculptures often suggest movement.
-
Site-specific art: Modern sculptures are often created outdoors and are sometimes site-specific, meaning they are intentionally created for a specific place.
-
Public art: The public’s reaction to sculpture in public spaces is a modern concept, as new parks and urban spaces were being developed in the 19th and 20th centuries.
-
Influenced by other cultures: Influenced by new sources of inspiration, including cultures outside of the European tradition.
Some pioneers of modern sculpture include Auguste Rodin, Constantin Brâncuși, and Henry Moore
