Sculpture definition

Sculpture is an art form in the true sense of the word, it is made by carving and modeling different types of materials.
The characteristic that mainly distinguishes painting from sculpture ( Marble , Wood , Terracotta , Wax , Porcelain , Clay ) is dimensionality.
While painting is two-dimensional, Sculpture in the Round is represented three-dimensional.
There are three techniques for making a Sculpture :

1. Carving: hard materials are processed and, in order to Sculpt the Sculpture , pointed tools are used.

2. Modeling: the Sculptures are modeled freehand, using tools such as spatulas, burettes, etc. Other raw material is added to the initial Sculpture to work it in detail.

3. Fusion: you start by standing up a wax sketch and from here, you have to cover this model with reinforced clay, to prevent it from shattering during cooking. At this point insert some tubes, to ensure that during cooking, the Bronze is able to enter and the wax to come out. Now the clay has become terracotta and we have our Bronze Sculpture .

History of ancient sculpture

Ancient Sculpture has always had the task of transmitting the values of ancient art to the new generations, thanks to its ability to remain intact over the years.
Western Sculpture has had a very jagged trend over the years, with particular influences from the classical canons.
We note how in antiquity the stylization of the figure prevails in Sculpture in the Round , especially the human one, to then reach a level of balance between realism and idealization with Greek culture.
With the Roman Empire the Greek model of Classical Sculptures remained unchanged.
During the Middle Ages sculptors tried to interpret Sculpture as an emotion detector, as opposed to what occurred in the Renaissance which after a while managed to recover the classical canons.
In the nineteenth century , Ancient Sculpture followed the developments of art, completely detaching itself from Classical Sculpture and bringing the flows of abstract art into the era.
