A great list!
Thanks for remember the sculptors, sometimes our work goes unnoticed under the painting work, it’s an honour to be in the list with a lot of great sculptors.
No wonder you like the list, the author seems to have a mad raging boner for your sculpts.
Your sculpts are great, but there are many other artists that deserve a place on this list. Rather than almost 20% of it being dedicated to you, and almost the same amount again for Patrick Masson.
Very poor and lazy article in my opinion.
So, make your own list of great sculptures, what’s the problem?
All great sculptures except for the short-legged Brad Pitt version… OMG!
