Editorial Reviews
Over the past three decades, sculpture has retaken its position at the forefront of contemporary art, with artists redefining the medium in remarkable and revolutionary ways. SCULPTURE TODAY is the only book to provide such a wide-ranging and richly-illustrated overview of contemporary sculpture. Thematic chapters examine the diverse subjects that have inspired sculptors in recent years, including the body, gravity, color, light, architecture, and clothing. A wide range of works is discussed, offering an insight into the incredible range of ideas, styles, materials, techniques, and locations explored in this versatile genre. This authoritative yet accessible text ensures the book's appeal to a wide range of readers.

A great disappointment

This large and bulky book is a great disappointment. It is well illustrated but the text is nearly impossible to read; print size is small,lines long and it appears to have been composed on an old-fashioned typewriter without proportional spacing which might lead one to wonder when it was written. To further add to the difficuly of reading,it is printed using gray ink. The artists included appears to be totally random; many are obscure and little known whereas others who are internationally known are omitted. Geographical coverage seems to be the United States and Europe; the rest of the world is ignored. The book could have been greatly improved with better editing.

PERFECT

This book is PERFECT. Hundreds of photos. Short texts. I'm waiting for Sculpture Today #2.
