I have to keep revisiting this stuff they are so concisely packed unpacking them; is like dismantling an atom bomb with toothpicks. One needs to be clear absolutely clear not only as to the artist intention but the intention of contemporary art. Even then conclusions are difficult. Darn thing blows up just when I stick that toothpick right there…

It’s interesting, that no African-American sculptors are mentioned, including John Outterbridge, or Lauren Halsey. I guess it will be a couple of more centuries before African-American artists will be considered “good enough.” 🤷🏾

Thank you for the reply. However art is NOT a feast, it has rules to follow, time that needs spent to develop the skills necessary to become just mediocre. From the "stuff" shown here, it's as if art is now defined as a free for all, and the people mostly to blame are art critics and people who try too pass themselves off as art historians and knowledgeable about fine art. Just because you can put paint to canvas, charcoal to paper, or clay to armature, in NO POSSIBLE UNIVERSE makes you an artist.

Don't wanna be so mean or rude but I must say that I'm really looking forward to what the new generations will bring. Though I can't deny that most of these sculptors DO have a sense of proportions and know how to enhance the space to amplify the viewer's experience, I can't but feel such dullness when looking at most of their artpieces. Even wonder if the future generations will be able to consider them "art pieces" if one of those goes unknown and unrecord.

Most of these is really tasteless 'art'. There are no sculptural qualities and there is no skill in making. These objects need long texts to explain any meaning and they have to try so hard talking and using fancy words to convince you that a toilet is art... After Rodin true sculpture has died...

None of these so called artists are sculptors. Their work can be best described as "found object", "installation", or "art-object". It is essential that the artist creates his works with his own hands. I've seen the works of Weiwei, Kapoor and Graham, and they've successfully bored me to death. Luckly I can access to real sculptures (Rodin, Yrurtia, Bourdelle).

Excellent survey of famous sculptors, the placing of Beuys at the top of the list made me smile. His conceptual work in all facets of his life, and his assertion that everyone is an artist, has been an endless source of inspiration for my work as a teaching artist. Perhaps a video can be made which lists a lesser known and more diverse group of sculptors. Thanks!
