Metal sculpture: History and techniques


Metal has long been a favored material for sculpture, much like wood, marble, or resin, and its unique properties make it highly versatile.
 
  • Gold has traditionally been used for small, regal, or religious objects, symbolizing nobility.
  • Copper was prominent in ancient times for decorative art and occasional sculptures.
  • Bronze rose to prominence during the Renaissance and Classical periods, often used for sculptures representing power and divinity.
  • Industrial metals such as iron, steel, aluminum, and tin emerged with technological advancements and are now commonly featured in modern metal sculptures.

The malleability and durability of metal have made it a preferred choice for artists, offering endless possibilities for creative expression. Sculptors use techniques like casting, lost wax casting, engraving, and modeling to bring their visions to life.

In the modern era, artists have embraced newer metals and styles, contributing to the ever-evolving field of contemporary metal sculpture.
