Construction and Assemblage
Although traditional techniques are still employed, much 20th-century sculpture is created by construction and assemblage
These methods have their origin in collage, a painting technique devised by Pablo Picasso and the French artist Georges Braque in 1912, in which paper and foreign materials are pasted to a picture surface. Picasso also made three-dimensional objects such as musical instruments out of paper and scraps of diverse materials, which were termed constructions.
Examples of modern constructivist sculpture range from the surrealistic boxes of Joseph Cornell to the junk-car and machine-part works of John Chamberlain, both Americans. The term assemblage, which is now sometimes used interchangeably with construction, was coined by the French painter Jean Dubuffet to refer to his own work, which grew out of collage. |
