RESEARCH- Tony Smith

("Stinger" left, "Smoke" right)


The next artist that I liked was Tony Smith. The main reason why I liked his work so much was due to the sheer size of his sculptures, for example his sculpture “Smoke”. It does not really resemble that of smoke, which is probably because he went to a minimalist school. The thing that impressed me the most was that his sculptures are made from concrete. I also liked the geometric forms, and the angles; they are just so sleek and sharp. This is implemented from the background he had in architecture.
