我的一位艺术家朋友兼前同事本科学的是雕塑,研究生时转投了油画专业,问其原因,最主要的是雕塑的制作过程太过复杂,需要艺术家之外很多人的参与和分工协作,而油画基本上艺术家自己就能完成。这恰恰说明,在当代艺术的诸多类别当中,或许雕塑是制作过程最复杂、分工最细化的一个门类,如果把公共艺术中的城市雕塑也算在内,其制作以及安装难度更会成倍增加。 One of my artist friends and former colleague, undergraduate, studied sculptures and postgraduates turned to oil painting major. The main reason for this is that the process of making sculptures is too complicated and requires the participation and division of labor of many people other than artists. The painting is basically done by the artist himself. This shows precisely that among the many categories of contemporary art, perhaps sculpture is one of the most complex and labor-intensive division of production. If we take urban sculpture in public art into account, it will be more difficult to make and install increase.
