Sculpture: Created By Personal, Social, Religious And Political Motivation

Abstract: 8 pages in length. Historically, sculpture was not always created for personal expression; religious, political and other motivations played a large role in this particular artistic endeavor. Frustration, elation, infatuation, anger and specific agenda, in addition to a whole host of other motivational factors, have long played a role how and why sculpture is created, with myriad pieces having been formed out of such emotions based upon religious, political, social and personal inspiration. Looking at Donatello's David, Rodin's Age of Brass and Michelangelo's David, one gains a significantly better perspective of these qualifying elements. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
