The Sculptural Imagination
Figurative, Modernist, Minimalist
Description:... In the modern period, sculpture has often been viewed as more limited, more literal, and also more primitive than the 'leading' visual art; painting. But precisely because of its marginal status, Alex Potts points out in this book, sculpture has played a complex and intriguing role in modern ideas and fantasies surrounding visual art. Potts explores the special qualities of sculpture as a free-standing three-dimensional entity, and he considers the distinctive demands sculpture places on the viewer.
