Art Word of the Day: Free carving
Term: Free carving
Definition: Carving without the use of
a pointing machine. Free carving generally follows a drawing on one or more faces of a block. With more and more carved sculptures having been executed by pointing machines after clay models, purists among Western sculptors of the early twentieth century used this term in an effort to recognize the fundamental difference between the processes of modeling and carving.
Art Word of the Day
