Going
back roughly 10,000 years we can see evidence of the art of sculpture. Stone
figures of females portrayed as symbols of fertility are the first sculptures
to be observed but many were to follow.
Sculpture
changed over the years with different techniques of construction (carving,
modeling in clay, casting in bronze). Constructed sculpture became a major
stream in modern art with welding and minimal art.
Whatever
the form of sculpture, Artlid helps cataloguing the sculptures and appreciating
their value.
