In 2008, sculpture is a broad field and its boundaries are quite porous. Sculpture doesn't "decorate" space, it takes up space. In fact, the best sculpture actually creates it;s own space or significantly alters the way we experience a place. Take for example, Karlis Rekevics' Bastion, Affectation, Differences?: the semi-carnivalesque architectural structure posits fragmentary images of Key West. The white plaster forms are blank and unarticulated save for the impressions left by the molds in which they were cast. This gives the work a sense of absence. |
