Constructing and Assembling
In the twentieth century a new way of making sculpture emerged with the cubist
constructions of Picasso. These were still life subjects made from scrap found
materials glued together. Constructed sculpture in various forms became a major
stream in modern art, including in movements such as constructivism or techniques
like assemblage. Artists have used techniques including bending, folding, stitching,
welding, bolting, tying, weaving, and balancing to construct sculptures from a wide
variety of materials and found objects.

Abstract Art
"What is real is not the external form but
the essence of things. Starting from this
truth it is impossible for anyone to
express anything essentially real by
imitating its exterior surface."
Constantin Brancusi

Nonobjective
sculpture is a more
completely
nonrepresentational form
that does not even have a
starting point in nature. It
arises from a constructive
manipulation of the
sculptor's generalized,
abstract ideas of spatial
relations, volume, line,
colour, texture, and so on.

"Biomorphic is a term
most commonly
associated with
abstract art to describe
a form that is irregular
or organic, often
derived from shapes
found in nature. Jean Arp Head and
Biomorphic forms are Shell
frequently found in
Surrealist art, most
Jean Arp
notably in the paintings Torso of Muse
of Yves Tanguy and the
sculpture of Arp and
Henry Moore.

"Minimalism's sense of
detachment and reduction to pure,
self-referential form is best seen in
sculpture. Of particular importance
to Minimal sculpture, by such
artists as Carl Andre, Dan Flavin,
Donald Judd, and Robert Morris, is
its relation to the space in which it
is located, asserting an inextricable
bond between the object and its Robert Morris untitled (mirrored cubes) (1965/71)
context. Furthermore, that many
sculptures were produced as series
demonstrates Minimalism's
propensity for subtle permutations
of prescribed forms. Minimal
objects (or their components) were
not fabricated by the artists
themselves but rather by other
people working from plans drawn
up by the artists." Ronald Bladen the X (1965)
"Installation art is art that
uses sculptural materials and
other media to modify the
way we experience a
particular space. Installation
art incorporates almost any
media to create a visceral
and/or conceptual experience
in a particular environment.
Materials used in
contemporary installation art
range from everyday and
natural materials to new
media such as video, sound, Tadashi Kawamata
performance, computers and
the internet."
Conceptual sculpture's primary
emphasis is the communication of
the idea behind the work. In
conceptual art the "concept is the
most important aspect of the
work...The idea becomes the
machine that makes the art..."
Much Conceptual art is self-
conscious or self-referential. Like
Duchamp and other modernists,
they created art that is about art,
Fountain (1917)
and pushed its limits by using Artist: Marcel
minimal materials and even text. Duchamp
