Publisher's Synopsis
The sculpture is the branch of the visual arts that operates in three dimensions. It is one of the plastic arts. Durable sculptural processes originally used carving (the removal of material) and modeling (the addition of material, as clay), in stone, metal, ceramics, wood, and other materials but, since Modernism, there has been almost complete freedom of materials and process. A wide variety of materials may be worked by removal such as carving, assembled by welding or modeling, or molded or cast.
Some sculptors use a chisel. Some sculptors use a torch. And some sculptors use... a Chainsaw! This book explores the fascinating world of Chainsaw sculpting through the eyes of one of the most preeminent sculptors of the time
