  2. Key Terms for this chapter include: • terra cotta • mold • lost-wax process • “in the round” • low relief (bas-relief) • high relief • contrapposto • installation • earthwork • time-based work © 2013, McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.

  3. Sculpture and Installation Sculpture involves works of art dealing with three-dimensional space. Three-dimensional involves: Height, Width, and Depth “In the round”: Freestanding artwork that can be viewed from any angle; completed on all sides. © 2013, McGraw-Hill Higher Education.

  5. Sculpture In relief, forms project from but remain attached to a background surface; meant to be viewed frontally. • Low Relief: Also called bas-relief; figures project only slightly from the background. • High Relief: Forms dramatically project from the background by generally at least half their depth.

  7. MODELING Modeling is an additive process. The sculptor begins with a framework or nothing at all and adds material until the sculpture is finished. It is a very direct method of working. • Clay, also known as terra cotta, is the most common modeling material. Insert visual(s).
