Some sculpture

Lacoon
such great faces.... and curls. 


Brancusi
I love that he had all of his works sitting in his studio, as if they were in dialogue with one another. 


I also love how shiny his bronzes are.  He paid so much attention to his materials, staying true to their form and enhancing their materiality.  He hand polished his bronzes and made his vertical statues out of entire tree trunks. 


I found this one in the MoMA catalog.  It is a photograph by Man Ray, but I thought the reference was appropriate.  

Tatlin Corner reliefs



I guess that is it for sculpture....more to come later.
