Andy Goldsworthy UK

British artist

Andy Goldsworthy

works in the fields and forests

near his home in Scotland

using natural elements

as his media.

His pieces have a tendency

to collapse, decay and melt,

but, as he tells

Fresh Air's Terry Gross,

"It's not about art.

It's just about life

and the need to understand

that a lot of things in life

do not last."

The list of elements

Goldsworthy

has worked with

includes ice, snow, mud,

wind and the rising tide.

In one piece,

he used twigs to fashion

a giant spider web

hanging from a tree.

In another,

he decorated a stone wall

with sheets of ice.

He has also lain in the rain

to create "rain shadows"

in the shape of his body

on city streets.

Richard Hunt USA 1935-2023

sculptor

who transformed public spaces

He produced

soaring installations of public art

over a career that he said was shaped

by attending the funeral of Emmett Till.

Lee Bontecou USA 1931-2022

Lee Bontecou ('s) enormous,

enigmatic wall-mounted sculptures

garnered the kind of public acclaim

and institutional backing in the 1960s

typically reserved for male art stars

at the time

(...)

Ms. Bontecou was one of the first

— and, for a time, one of the only — women

shown at the influential Leo Castelli Gallery,

whose roster of artists included Cy Twombly,

Frank Stella and Robert Rauschenberg.

In the mid-1960s,

the artist and critic Donald Judd praised

her pioneering use

of “a three-dimensional form

that was neither painting nor sculpture”

and deemed her

“one of the best artists working anywhere.”

Christopher Lee Burden USA 1946-2015

locked up,

dropped from heights

and nearly drowned,

all at once

Stephen Antonakos 1926-2013

His medium was light;

his materials included glass,

an electrical charge

The result was a series

indoor and outdoor spaces

in cities around the globe,

instantly recognizable

for their vibrant colors

and sinuous lines.

Duane Hanson USA 1925-1996

American photorealist sculptor

artist

whose super-realist

sculptures

of blond cheerleaders,

beer-bellied tourists

and other ordinary Americans

earned him

vast popular acclaim,

but also disdain

in some art circles

(...)

Mr. Hanson

rose to international fame

in the early 70's

during the rise

of Photo Realist painting.

Using casts of live models,

he produced life-size figures

of Everymen and women,

which he dressed in real clothes

and sometimes supplemented

with real chairs, tables

and other props.

Marjorie Jewel "Marlow" Moss UK 1889-1958

one of Britain’s

most important

Constructivist artists

(...)

Prior to the First World War,

Moss produced

highly abstract

painted compositions

similar to the work

of Mondrian, with whom

she is often associated

and who she was close to

for much of her life.

Later,

her practice developed

toward the production

of all-white reliefs

and sculptural works.

Moss lived and worked

between Paris and Cornwall

for much of her life,

changing her name

and permanently adopting

a masculine appearance

in 1919.

Moss finally settled

in Lamorna Cove in 1939.
