Understand Sculpture Today in 10 Minutes

Join the CAI Newsletter: https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... Read the complete article here: https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... In this video, we take you through 20 of the most important sculptors working today, from Antony Gormley’s iron bodies and Urs Fischer’s melting wax figures to Ai Weiwei’s bicycles and Cattelan’s (in)famous banana. Rather than a ranking, we’ve grouped them into four tendencies: the return of the body, matter and play, time, space and perception, and history and politics. Together, they show where sculpture stands today. The monumental head in the thumbnail? That’s Mark Manders, possibly my personal favorite sculptor today. It looks like wet, cracking clay, held together by wooden planks, but it’s actually bronze. A beautiful deception. 🌟 Overview: Career Advice for Artists → https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... 🍿 Watch Next (Key Videos for Artists) → Self-Taught Success:    • 6 Steps To Success as a Self-Taught Artist...   → How To Make Money as an Artist:    • 20 Ways: How To Make Money As An Artist (R...   → Develop Your Art Style:    • How To Develop A Consistent Art Style: 6 P...   → The Art World Explained:    • Explained: What is the Art World? — Part 1...   📖 Recommended Books: → Art World & Career Advice: https://amzn.to/4aCllb1 → How To Become A Successful Artist: https://amzn.to/3YwtjvS → Art History: https://amzn.to/3I0ri5I → Overview of books: https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... ✏️ Recommended Tools & Ressources: → Squarespace for artist websites: squarespace.syuh.net/9W4rDY → Artenda for art opportunities: https://artenda.net → Artfacts for career rankings: https://artfacts.net/register?ref=596... ❤️ Support us on Patreon: →   / contemporaryartissue   ℹ️ About CAI: CAI is the abbreviation of 'Contemporary Art Issue,' a hybrid platform for contemporary art including: → Online Magazine: https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... → Advice for Artists: https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... → CAI Gallery: https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... → Webshop: https://www.contemporaryartissue.com/... 👨 About the host Julien Delagrange: Julien Delagrange is an art historian, contemporary artist, and the founder and director of CAI.
