Untitled (Evans)
Untitled is a 1972 sculpture by Garth Evans. It was created as part of the Peter Stuyvesant City Sculpture project. 16 new sculptures were created for the project and placed in eight cities in the United Kingdom. The piece was placed on The Hayes in central Cardiff for six months. In 2019 the sculpture was restored and placed in its original position on The Hayes for six months from September 2019 to March 2020.

Sculpture On The Hayes, Cardiff, September 2020 01
Sculpture is the branch of the visual arts that operates in three dimensions. Sculpture is the three-dimensional art work which is physically presented in the dimensions of height, width and depth. It is one of the plastic arts. Durable sculptural processes originally used carving (the removal of material) and modelling (the addition of material, as clay), in stone, metal, ceramics, wood and other materials but, since Modernism, there has been an almost complete freedom of materials and process. A wide variety of materials may be worked by removal such as carving, assembled by welding or modelling, or moulded or cast. Sculpture in stone survives far better than works of art in perishable materials, and often represents the majority of the surviving works (other than pottery) from ancient cultures, though conversely traditions of sculpture in wood may have vanished almost entirely. However, most ancient sculpture was brightly painted, and this has been lost. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
