The Trouble With Sculpture
The two main historical practices in art, painting and sculpture, endure today. But while painting expands modestly from its place on the wall from time to time, sculpture has exploded or evaporated into those art forms that painting cannot accommodate. Artists Martina Schmücker, Haroon Mirza, Keith Wilson and Nathaniel Mellors and curator and chair of New Contemporaries Sacha Craddock discuss the state of sculpture today.

So you walk down the street, you are a sculptor… You dance naked you are a sculptor… you take a crap and you are a sculptor… This is so much ridiculous clap trap. I am not sure I have ever heard so many words that when linked together mean absolutely NOTHING.
I’m pleased I didn’t go to this it’s boring
Good god, stunningly anal and ridiculous. Takes me back to my Art School days; the intellectualizing is unjustified as it’s not connected to emotion. . . in fact the reason for the verbal wankery is to conjure the idea that there’s something big / evolved happening that students need to buy into. I.e. it’s a teacher’s industry, largely pedalling snake oil.
