A further talk on sculpture by Alexander Stoddart, the King’s Sculptor in Ordinary in Scotland.
With the demise of the teaching of art and art history in most of the art schools in the western world, so it is inevitable that the continued need for sculptural representations of famous people is served by those bereft of any knowledge of style and historic precedent. Accordingly, recent works of statuary seem bound to the photographic source, deserting the fundamental origin of any proper monument in design first and foremost. Many a modern bronze figure may be said to convey a very accurate account of the subject’s likeness, where precious few ever manage a true likeness of a statue of the subject.
Professor Stoddart will expand upon the virtual extinction of the statue-sensibility which has so long served the Occident and Orient alike, to be replaced by a brutal and banal realism that smiles, waves, and kicks a football.
