Additional information
by Oliver Andrews (Author)
Every material has an active presence and every material is susceptible to change. The task of the sculptor is to understand the natural properties of a chosen material, to know in the process of creation how best to work with, or against, its characteristics. In this generously illustrated studio manual, sculptor Oliver Andrews takes a new approach to sculpture, focusing on how the innate assertiveness of materials affects the complex act of making a sculpture.
Back Jacket
In this book I try to show how this assertiveness of materials interacts with the will of the artist in the complex process called 'making a sculpture.'
