Sculpture Quotes

Without art; without paintings, books, sculpture and music, the human soul would be quite impenetrable, don’t you think? Picture Quote #1

I’ve noticed a lot of younger artists have less fear of doing different sorts of things, whether it’s various types of music, or gallery artists moving between video and sculpture and drawing Picture Quote #1

Silence is as full of potential wisdom and wit as the unshown marble of great sculpture. The silent bear no witness against themselves Picture Quote #1

Then sculpture and her sister arts revived; stones leaped to form, and rocks began to live Picture Quote #1

If you have a statue in the city centre you could go past it every day on your way to school and never even notice it, right. But as soon as someone puts a traffic cone on its head, you’ve made your own sculpture Picture Quote #1

We are each given a block of marble when we begin a lifetime, and the tools to shape it into sculpture... We can drag it behind us untouched, we can pound it into gravel, we can shape it into glory Picture Quote #1

She is angle. I am curve. Together, we are geometric sculpture, and we make perfect sense Picture Quote #1

Ideas were growing in all directions and dimensions; they were becoming a sculpture, or a castle. And then everyone left her, to return to their own affairs; and she was alone, and empty and unbelieving again Picture Quote #1

In dance, in composition, in sculpture, the experience is the same: we are more the conduit than the creator of what we express Picture Quote #1

The germ of an idea doesn’t make the sculpture that stands up... so the next stage is hard work Picture Quote #1

Writing nonfiction is more like sculpture, a matter of shaping the research into the finished thing Picture Quote #1

Never yet could I find that a black had uttered a thought above the level of plain narration; never saw even an elemental trait of painting or sculpture Picture Quote #1

And like no other sculpture in the history of art, the dead engine and dead airframe come to life at the touch of a human hand, and join their life with the pilot’s own Picture Quote #1

Without painting, sculpture, music, poetry, and the emotions produced by natural beauty of every kind, life would lose half its charm Picture Quote #1

I’m a very positive person, but this whole concept of having to always be nice, always smiling, always happy, that’s not real. It was like I was wearing a mask. I was becoming this perfectly chiselled sculpture, and that was bad. That took a long time to understand Picture Quote #1

I lay there silently, hoarding my small dignity. I did not ask about the gate or the closet. I did not question the bedtime ritual where, on the cold bathroom tiles, I was spread out daily and examined for flaws. I did not know that my bones, those solids, those pieces of sculpture would not splinter Picture Quote #1

An enterprising person is one who comes across a pile of scrap metal and sees the making of a wonderful sculpture. An enterprising person is one who drives through an old decrepit part of town and sees a new housing development. An enterprising person is one who sees opportunity in all areas of life Picture Quote #1

I can actually feel the interior body of a dancer. I have the ability to capture a split second... I want you to be hit with whatever the essence is of this sculpture Picture Quote #1

It is easy now to communicate with people through abstraction, and particularly so in sculpture. Since the whole body reacts to its presence, people become themselves a living part of the whole Picture Quote #1

Silence is as full of potential wisdom and wit as the unhewn marble of great sculpture Picture Quote #1

Sculpture is not the mere cutting of the form of anything in stone; it is the cutting of the effect of it. Very often the true form, in the marble, would not be in the least like itself Picture Quote #1

But I don’t think that sculpture belongs in everyday life like a table does, or like a chair Picture Quote #1

The temple of art is built of words. Painting and sculpture and music are but the blazon of its windows, borrowing all their significance from the light, and suggestive only of the temple’s uses Picture Quote #1

When Socrates was about 30, and his father was long dead, he was still pursuing the art of sculpture, but from necessity, and without much inclination Picture Quote #1

I remember looking at books when I was in high school, but I don’t think I really stood in front of a genuine painting or sculpture until I was out of high school Picture Quote #1

I love looking at sculpture, but there’s some sort of spell that’s broken with it Picture Quote #1

I believe people can have a profound experience by being surrounded by something beautiful - that’s what I aim for. My sculpture is about the way you feel when you’re standing under it and inside it. It’s experiential art Picture Quote #1

I’d been to Stourhead and was inspired by the perfect parity between architecture and art; in fact, the architecture is the art. I wrote a piece called ‘Not Sculpture Park,’ because most of these things become car parks for bought-in sculpture. The artists should be working with the site, not just plonking pieces down Picture Quote #1

If Abstract Expression reached for the sublime, Pop turned ordinary imagery into icons. Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol illuminated the transformative power of context and the process of reproduction. Claes Oldenburg’s soft ice-cream cones and hamburgers changed sculpture from hard to soft, from stasis to transformation Picture Quote #1

Lou Tyrrell has created a theatre that is a safe haven for playwrights, a birthing center for new American writing. Arts Garage has created a vital, enthusiastic audience for theatre, music, painting and sculpture in Delray Beach Picture Quote #1
