Download or read book Francisco Z iga Sculptor written by Sheldon Reich and published by . This book was released on 1900 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the artist is more than his art, so this book is more than a collection of pictures. Here is the essence of Mexico's greatest living sculptor, reflected in his own words, in critical commentary, and in strikingly dramatic representations of his work. Part I, "Conversations," distills a series of exclusive interviews with Zu�iga that have never before been published. In frankly discussing his life and art, the sculptor lends fascinating and sometimes controversial insights into his society and cultural milieu. Part II, "Interpretations," offers Sheldon Reich's stylistic analysis of Zu�iga's work as it has evolved through various media over a forty year period. Highlighting this impressive volume are more than one hundred black-and-white photographs depicting the artist, his models, his studio, and of course his incomparable sculptures. Included are not only rare prints of projects that have been destroyed, but glimpses of unfinished pieces as well. Thus embracing past, present, and future, the book itself will stand as a monument to an artist whose own monuments inspire the admiration of millions.

Download or read book Contemporary Public Sculpture written by Harriet Senie and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1992 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twentieth century, public sculpture has changed almost beyond recognition. Works inspired by classical and Renaissance traditions - imposing equestrian monuments and triumphal arches - have been replaced by works such as Claes Oldenburg's Clothespin and Christo's Running Fence. This break from tradition has led to radically different approaches to public sculpture - but not without bitter controversy within both the art community and the general public. Contemporary Public Sculpture offers the first comprehensive look at this highly diverse and often controversial branch of modern art. Beginning with the revival of public sculpture in the 1960s, with the work of Picasso, Calder, Moore, Nevelson, and others, Senie traces the developments that defined a new civic art: one which substituted the artist's fame for public content and sparked debates about cost, the role of government, and the place of public art in a democratic society. She shows how the growing irrelevance of traditional memorials resulted in a new approach to the genre defined by Maya Lin's Vietnam Veteran's Memorial, which set out to "heal a nation" rather than glorify a military event by honoring victims rather than heroes; and how dissatisfaction with modern "glass box" architecture and its surrounding barren urban spaces led architectural firms like Skidmore, Owings, & Merrill to use art to enliven both. Senie discusses how the earthworks of Robert Smithson and others inspired public sculpture that brought various landscape elements into urban sites; and she explores works by George Sugarman and Scott Burton that combine sculpture and furniture, changing the very idea of public art by creating a stage for publiclife. Finally, she examines the controversies that arise when citizens (including the press and politicians) confront publicly funded work - such as Joel Shapiro's "Headless Gumby" or Serra's Tilted Arc - that defies their sense of what public sculpture should be. Illustrated with over one hundred halftones, this overview of contemporary public sculpture provides a clear understanding of why it is there, why it looks the way it does, and what is really at stake in the continuing public art controversy.

Download or read book Creating Welded Sculpture written by Nathan Cabot Hale and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-07-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this generously illustrated guide, newly revised and updated, a well-known American sculptor shares his forty years of experience working with welded sculpture techniques. Nathan Cabot Hale begins with the basic assumption that it is necessary for a sculptor-welder to have the same professional skills as a good job-welder. To help readers gain those skills, he demonstrates both traditional and comparatively new welding methods step by step, including the oxyacetylene technique in modeling small-scale figurative sculpture. Mr. Hale first discusses the basic tools and techniques of welded sculpture, then addresses the construction of abstract and organic shapes and modeling solid figures. This is followed by detailed coverage of finishing techniques, arc welding, and welding large-scale commissioned works. He even dispenses helpful practical advice on the economics of fine art — exhibiting work, staying alive, searching out public and private support, and more. Over 80 helpful diagrams and more than 100 photographs accompany the text, demonstrating techniques and procedures and depicting works in progress as well as finished works. In a new chapter written specially for this edition, Mr. Hale shares the heartening artistic philosophy he has developed over his long and distinguished career. Sculptors at many levels of accomplishment will find his book instructive and inspiring.
