ArtMatters: Sculpture of Western CivilizationWEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28 - 1:30—2:30 pm via ZoomSCULPTURE of Western Civilization -Part 1 – Ancient times until 1900 Sculpture is the art of making real objects from many kinds of substances. It is a physical, sometimes complicated process, requiring many kinds of tools, chemical treatments, solvents, dyes, large equipment, and sometimes furnaces or kilns. It can be as monumental as a mountain, or as small as coin. Since sculpture exists in 3-dimensional space, with many different perspectives, including looking up from below, and down from above, it requires solving multiple compositional problems. Join us for the first part of a history of Human expression with sculpture, from ancient times until the modern era. With Jane Blair of ArtMatters. Presented thanks to the support of the Friends of Carlisle Council on Aging and Friends of Gleason Public Library. Part 1 will be presented on February 28th and Part 2 on March 6th; please register for each part separately. Please visit gleasonlibrary.org/events to register. Chair Yoga

ArtMatters: Sculpture of Western Civilization
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28 - 1:30—2:30 pm via Zoom
SCULPTURE of Western Civilization -Part 1 – Ancient times until 1900
Sculpture is the art of making real objects from many kinds of substances. It is a physical, sometimes complicated process, requiring many kinds of tools, chemical treatments, solvents, dyes, large equipment, and sometimes furnaces or kilns. It can be as monumental as a mountain, or as small as coin. Since sculpture exists in 3-dimensional space, with many different perspectives, including looking up from below, and down from above, it requires solving multiple compositional problems. Join us for the first part of a history of Human expression with sculpture, from ancient times until the modern era.
With Jane Blair of ArtMatters. Presented thanks to the support of the Friends of Carlisle Council on Aging and Friends of Gleason Public Library.
Part 1 will be presented on February 28th and Part 2 on March 6th; please register for each part separately.
Please visit gleasonlibrary.org/events to register.
