Small Sculptures: A Constantly Evolving Contemporary Style

Nothing is more fascinating in the artistic universe than contemporary sculpture! Since its existence, a little over half a century ago, this art has continued to grow and diversify with materials evermore valorizing it.

The original sculpture as such was born between the end of the Upper Paleolithic and the beginning of the Epipaleolithic. It was only in the times of the Romans and Greeks that we began to see classical sculptures. Today, we can admire beautiful works exhibited around the world that date back to this era. Succeeding modern art, contemporary art has a unique beauty. This type of sculpture attracts, fascinates, and inspires thousands of enthusiasts worldwide.

In the beginning, men primarily carved in stone but also in ivory, bone, clay, or flint. This includes the crafting of small clay sculptures, an art that still thrives today.

It was much later, thousands of years later, that they began to work with marble, bronze, and even cement. Currently, we see numerous ways to sculpt with various materials including mixed techniques. Different artists thus have the opportunity to specialize and choose the type of art that suits them best.

That's why, on the online gallery of Carré d'artistes, we strive to provide a wide range of unique creations from small metal sculptures to small bronze sculptures, encompassing all sizes from small to large. You can choose your favorite small sculpture among this sublime contemporary art.
