You can find amazing sculptures all over the world and even on the internet. Their creators have simply taken and destroyed all the traditions that reigned in the world of fine arts. Today, sculpture is much more than just stone or concrete transformed into a certain harmonious form. Modern sculptures are made of completely different and sometimes seemingly incompatible materials, and their meaning has become much deeper than the singing of character or lines.
The 7-meter creation by Korean sculptor Do-Ho Soo welcomes visitors to New York's Albright-Knox Art Gallery and immediately strikes the imagination, from the height of a human being it seems to be a rocket launched into the sky. The art object consists of 98 male figures made of steel, squatting and covering each other's eyes.
The installation, which resembles a symbolic silver-plated spine, is an allusion to evolution, in the course of which each successive generation must be spiritually superior to the previous one. The descendants, having turned a blind eye to the sins and crimes of their forebears, will rise, but will have to build on the experience of previous generations. The sculpture was installed in the Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden in February 2012.
Polish-born Belgian sculptor Albert Szukalski died in 2000, but he left behind a legacy of creativity that is still remembered today by those who visit the American ghost town of Rhyolite. Founded during the Gold Rush and emptied in 1920, this town has not even 15 years of living history. But thanks to the efforts of modern sculptors, it has been transformed into an attraction called Goldwell Open Air Museum, a real open-air museum. The author of the most famous work is Albert Shukalsky
The picturesque group of plaster ghosts against the backdrop of Death Valley (and the city and museum are not far from this famous American park) is the same sculpture by a Belgian author called Last Supper. Albert Szukalski created it based on Leonardo da Vinci's famous fresco The Last Supper, which took him more than two years to complete. For greater realism, he used live people as models, which he covered with cloth soaked in a quick-drying gypsum-based solution.
This sculptural group looks especially picturesque at night, when the incorporeal figures of ghosts are illuminated from within by multicolored lighting. Many tourists specially come to the Goldwell Open Air Museum closer to the evening to enjoy just such a mysterious and mysterious view of "The Last Supper" by Albert Szukalski.
Greek artist and sculptor Adam Martinakis creates digital sculptures in the genre of futuristic virtual art. You can only see them on the internet or in prints. But that's what contemporary art is all about, discovering new ways of expression.
In Adam Martinakis' works we hardly see anything but human bodies: they intertwine, connect, flow from one to another, dissect each other, fall apart or dissolve into space. The frozen movement is here an expressive tool, as in dance, and the faceless body is a symbol of life itself.
By focusing objects on each other, the artist does not invite us to come into contact with them. For him, art becomes a bridge between spirit and matter, the living and the absent, the personal and the universal. By limiting himself to a minimum of actors, Adam Martinakis allows the viewer to concentrate on the main thing - the vibrations of life, which are spilled in his works. This allows the viewer to have a metaphysical experience of the emptiness that the author perceives as true space.
Yoan Capote 's sculptures are images that relate to ordinary concepts. Each object has a meaning, a content that is common knowledge. It is there, but it is hidden somewhere "in the context". And the sculptor pulls this very content out a little, and the result is ... at least interesting.
Erotic Sculpture Park. The park is located in the open air in South Korea, on Jeju Island. The main theme of the park is sexuality and eroticism in its various manifestations. This theme of the park is not only unusual, but also unusual for modest and reserved residents of South Korea.
Naked people and stone genitalia are everywhere in this park - that's the short description of the famous Korean park on Jeju Island. So it's also very not recommended to come here with children: benches in the form of male phalluses, nude sculptures, images of people having sex and even dogs.

Alberta's Dream, a statue by Spanish-born artist Jaume Plensa, is located in Alberta, Canada.
