An exhibition curated by the artist William Tucker.  In his catalogue introduction Tucker wrote “This is an exhibition of sculpture, not of sculptors. Nor is the exhibition either polemic or programmatic in intent.  My aim was simply to bring together work done in the last two or three years by artists who appear consciously or intuitively, to accept the condition of sculpture as I understand it.”    Artists included Carl Andre, Roger Bates, Larry Bell, Michael Bolus, Garth Evans, David Evison, André Fateaux, Lloyd Gibson, Katherine Gili, Nigel Hall, Brower Hatcher, Julian Hawkes, Peter Hide, Robert Hudson, Philip King, Jeff Lowe, Loren Madsen, John Maine, Robert Murray, David Nash, Paul Neagu, Emma Park, Nicholas Pope, Peter Reginato, Ulrich Rückreim, Lucas Samaras, Tim Scott, David Seaton, Richard Serra, Anthony Smart, Michael Steiner, Sylvia Stone, Mark di Suvero, Brian Thompson, William Tucker, David van de Kop, Roger Williams, Jacqueline Winsor, Isaac Witkin, and James Wolfe.

 Exhibition organised by the Arts Council of Great Britain.  A catalogue, with an introduction by William Tucker and brief biographic notes of the artists selected, was published by the Arts Council.  ISBN 0 7287 0054 9; 0 7287 0055 7

Glossary

  • Sculpture

    A three-dimensional work of art. Such works may be carved, modelled, constructed, or cast. Sculptures can also be described as assemblage, in the round, relief, and made in a huge variety of media. Contemporary practice also includes live elements, as in Gilbert & George 'Living Sculpture' as well as broadcast work, radio or sound sculpture.
