To clear up any confusion…
If you haven’t watched the videos attached to the assignment for your midterm, this may be confusing. I am not talking about a meteorite or an alien spaceship…or could I be? Googleÿ“an object in space, sculpture”ÿif you’re still confused. You might even GoogleÿBrancusi for some idea of his philosophy on 3 dimensional objects occupying space.ÿ
Consider this:ÿThe peculiarity of sculpture is that it creates a three-dimensional object in space. Painting may strive to live on a two-dimensional plane, the illusion of space, but it is space itself as a perceived quality that becomes the peculiar concern of the sculptor.
