Gilbert and George - everything we do is a living scuplture

Paul Fryer




Anthony Gormley - the body is the sight of conscousness - in a way of being






Rachel Whitread - the space inside




Anthony Caro - abstraction with the same feelings of humaness. Sculpture is food for the eyes, I don't know what it's for.




Andy Goldsworthy








Elizabeth Frink


Cornelia Parker






Anish Kapoor
There are so many I have been fortunate enough to experience up close and personally.
I love his work

I have really like Henry Moore, Andy Goldsworthy, Eric Gill and Anish Kapoor. Of the others, they are interesting but as yet not grabbed like I am sucked in by the others. There is something I get that is sexy and alive and emotional in those. There are many others I have loved. I really like a Hepworth bust I saw in a gallery but not posted here. So It's been interesting checking out these few

A place worth a visit I reckon!   http://www.sculpture.uk.com/

55 Broadway - art deco

 




 
Joseph Epstein - Night and Day
David Heathcote said that Epstein had to remove an inch and a half off the poor boy's willy because rain ran down it and formed a perfect arc of water onto the pavement


 Henry Moore - West Wind

55 Broadway is a notable building overlooking St. James's Park in London. It was designed by Charles Holden and built between 1927 and 1929, and in 1931 the building earned him the RIBA London Architecture Medal. It was built as a new headquarters building for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London (UERL), the main forerunner of London Underground.
