rust 353 - clearing

this was to have been part of the second series of Antony Gormley sculptures (didn’t manage to get to Gateshead or Peckham) this sculpture is titled ‘clearing’

it is apposite that a sculpture by Antony Gormley is the next blog photo after Richard Serra yesterday because in a recent interview in New Statesman he is asked “who is the most influential artist of the past 100 years?” and he answers: “as a sculptor and feeling that sculpture is the most profound way in which our prejudice about the world can be challenged, I think Richard Serra. His structures invite first-hand, somatic, haptic, direct physical experience, bypassing our way of constantly reading things.”
