California Art Artists Directory - Marble Sculpture

Sculpture: 1. The art of carving, cutting, or hewing wood, stone, metal, etc., into statues, ornaments, etc., or into figures, as of men, or other things; hence, the form of producing figures and groups, whether in plastic or hard materials. 2. Carved work modeled of, or cut upon, wood, stone, metal, etc.

Sculpture is any three-dimensional form created as an artistic expression. Sculpting is the application of assembling or shaping an object. It may be of any size and of any suitable material. The artist who does this is called a sculptor.

Robert Gove - He creates sculptures from marble and stone in the northern Mediterranean town of Carrara, Italy. He has a deep silence, reflecting the spiritual values of this discipline. The energy forms of nature are reinterpreted in the array of marble he uses: bardiglio, fior di pesco statuario, and verde alphi. These simple elegant sculptures are the shape of spirit.
