Antony Gormley
Contemporary sculptor of human figures exploring body and space.
Quotes by Antony Gormley
The environment shapes the artwork as much as the artist.
We live in a world of echoes.
Form follows feeling.
The gallery is a temple of the mind.
Every line drawn is a decision.
The body politic is embodied in art.
Silence in sculpture speaks volumes.
I seek the poetry of the everyday.
Materiality is the soul of sculpture.
Art is a rebellion against entropy.
The viewer completes the work.
Presence through absence.
Sculpture invites touch, even when forbidden.
Time erodes, but art endures.
The cast body is a second skin.
Imagination fills the negative space.
Art is the ultimate democracy.
Every figure stands alone, yet connected.
The horizon is where earth meets sky in sculpture.
We are all works in progress.
