Modern British Sculpture

Monday 8th April 2024 at 10:00–12:00

This talk from the Arts Society Steyning, led by Raymond Warburton, explores the work of prominent sculptors in the 20th century, including Epstein, Moore, Hepworth, Caro, Frink, and Gormley.

They embraced modernism in diverse ways, drawing inspiration from different cultures and techniques. While some pursued social and humanitarian themes, others preferred an abstract approach. Despite their differences, and some clashes and quarrels, these sculptors have an enduring influence.

The talk also discusses the distinction between sculpture and installation.
