Download or read book Karl Prantl Sculpture written by Karl Prantl and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a record of two outstanding exhibitions of works of the same sculptor in two different countries. The photographs and text are designed to communicate the impact of 23 major sculptures by the Austrian Karl Prantl (b. 1923) in their respective public spaces, and over the course of changing seasons. Prantl's enigmatic and uncluttered stone sculptures are seen here outdoors, in the wide-open spaces of the Yorkshire Sculpture Park in England, and in more enclosed grounds located in Austria. These deeply striking works convey a meditative resonance, and are important additions to the oeuvre of one of Europe's leading post-war sculptors.

Book excerpt: The Martin Luther King Memorial on the National Mall of Washington, DC, is dedicated to the first person of color, first person for peace, and first person with no public or government position, etc. The values this person represents—democracy, justice, equal rights, hope, and love—are ever more relevant to the advance of human civilization of our own society and those of the whole world. The unique memorial style also sets it apart from all the other memorials on the National Mall of Washington, DC. Its central piece, the Stone of Hope, is the first granite statue, the tallest, and installed outdoor. It was designed, carved, and installed by a Chinese master sculptor, Lei Yixin. You may want to know who first initiated this project. Who managed the operation of the memorial development project? Whose design was finally selected? Who is Lei Yixin? How and why he was chosen to be the sculptor of record? How did he design and build the massive Stone of Hope and the Mountains of Despair out of granite? Where did he create those art pieces? And from where did they ship the stone to Washington DC? How did he install this central piece of the memorial? This book will give you all above and more answers you would like to know.

Book excerpt: Here is a survey and critical study of the use of outdoor sculpture in contemporary society. Thoroughly illustrated with examples of successful projects, this book provides the guidelines needed by all professionals and laypeople responsible for enhancing our visual environment with outdoor sculpture. After the author discusses the significance and functions of outdoor sculpture throughout history, she defines the kinds of outdoor sculpture and its relation to various settings. The vocabulary needed to evaluate outdoor sculpture is spelled out, with five criteria for the section and placement of works: contextual relevance, staging, apprehension of revealment, physical attributes, and environmental relationship. A discussion of areas of special concern for the future such as highway sculpture, artworks for the handicapped, participatory sculpture, environmental/functional, movable/portable, temporary, and earth sculpture rounds out the comprehensive coverage. -- From publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a timely and unique overview of the 16 diverse federal states that make up the reunified Germany. The essential data for each state is provided in this easy-to-use reference. The demographics, geography, history, recent politics, economy, architecture, and noteworthy sites, people and culture, memorial sites, and traditional cuisine are surveyed in turn. This is an invaluable resource for students studying German and Germany, travelers, and teachers. A clear introduction explains the new Germany in historical and regional context. It has been claimed that Germany is a post-national society, but regions are still a primary basis of identity for many Germans and one of the main references points in daily life and politics. Part of Germany's reconstruction came through re-creation and identification with historically remolded regions. This work offers a needed summary of the results thus far.
