Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Greek Sculptors To each of the six Greek sculptors from whom this book takes its title a separate volume might well have been assigned in a series such as the present. But when the editor of the series suggested to me that the great sculptors of Greece should be grouped together, I accepted the suggestion because it seemed that a definite need might thus be met. There are probably many people who wish to acquire some grasp of the character of the chief sculptors, without following the whole course of the history of Greek sculpture from its origins to its decadence; and there are others who desire to supplement what general outlines of this history they may have learnt by a more vivid realisation and appreciation of the work of the leading artists. There is no need to defend the selection of the six sculptors to whom the chapters of the book are devoted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the sixth and fifth centuries BC, Greek sculpture developed into a fine art.

This book explores the material aspects of Greek sculpture at a pivotal phase in its evolution. Considering typologies and function, an international team of experts traces the development of technical characteristics of marble and bronze sculpture, the choice of particular marbles in different areas, and the types of monuments that were created on the Greek mainland, the islands and the west coast of Asia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Greek Sculpture aims to provide a detailed examination of current research and directions in the field. Bringing together an international cast of contributors from Greece, Italy, France, Great Britain, Germany, and the United States, the volume incorporates new areas of research, such as the sculptures of Messene and Macedonia, sculpture in Roman Greece, and the contribution of Greek sculptors in Rome, as well as important aspects of Greek sculpture like techniques and patronage. The written sources (literary and epigraphical) are explored in dedicated chapters, as are function and iconography and the reception of Greek sculpture in modern Europe. Inspired by recent exhibitions on Lysippos and Praxiteles, the book also revisits the style and the personal contributions of the great masters.

Book excerpt: More than any other ancient civilization, the Greeks placed the human body at the center of their culture. To them, the sculpted human figure was both an object of sensory delight and an expression of an intelligent mind. In the modern popular imagination, mention of the ancient Greeks is likely to conjure up an image of idealized and naked youth, and it is true that the ideal nude, both male and female, is a striking feature of Greek sculpture. However, in later Greek art, sculptors and their patrons became increasingly interested in human diversity, experimenting with the representation of ethnicity, age, social standing, and character. The marble, bronze, and terra-cotta sculptures presented in this volume--outstanding highlights drawn from over six centuries of artistic production--demonstrate the diversity of Greek figural forms, from the idealized beauty of the Classical era to the individualized portraits of the Hellenistic period. Large, stunning details testify to the artists' skills in portraying cold, hard materials as warm, human flesh.
