can anyone please name me any architects which have designed sculptors for various regions around the world. I need it for an essay I am writing. Thank you. ~Houman~
I'm not sure if this will help....Donald Judd - architecture and sculpture.
FOG Hadid Libeskind Calatrava Eisenman Meier I am sure any architect would take the job to build some sculpture, I know I would!
i am more interested in the topic of sculptors as architects, esp. some of judds renovations in marfa. me gusta his artillery sheds.
you've seen the rest, now..
I don't really think architects make good sculpture. At least, I can't think of an example of a work that is an amazing SCULPTURE. There are lots of "sculptural environments" that were designed by architects. Here's one:cranbrook entry But again, I think sculptors make better sculptural environments, for the most part, than we do. Serra: torqued ellipses and Tim Hawkinson: uberorgan Architects tend to be too, well, anal about order and structure to make anything truly body-oriented. On the other hand, Mark West is pretty sculptural, but again, within the vocabulary of architecture, not pure form: concrete formwork
vito acconci
dennis oppenheim
tony smith- architect trained by flw turned influential sculptor. he translated 'architectural order' into compelling sculptures.
