Introduction

Three-dimensional works of art:

Have height, width, and depth

Possess four of the visual elements: form, volume, mass, and texture

Form

A two-dimensional object is a shape; a three-dimensional object is called a form

Forms have two basic attributes

Volume: the amount of space a form occupies

Mass: the volume is solid and occupies space

Forms vary widely in scale (the size of an object relative to another object)

Forms are tactile; texture can be experienced directly through touch or imagined simply by looking at it

Great Sphinx of Giza and Pyramid of Khafre

1.2.2 Great Sphinx of Giza (front), c. 2500 BCE, and Pyramid of Khafre, c. 2500 BCE, Giza, Egypt

Great Sphinx of Giza and Pyramid of Khafre

The Great Sphinx is the largest carving in the world from a single stone; it guards tombs

Pyramid of Khafre is an example of regulated geometric form

Egyptian art and architecture is ordered and controlled; governed by a canon (set of rules)

Stone was a common material in ancient Egypt

Both artworks are located at Giza, near Cairo

Great Sphinx

Symbol of the power we, as humans, have to change our surroundings

The name “sphinx” comes from Greek, not Egyptian, mythology (creature with the body of a lion, wings of an eagle, and head of a man)

Believed to be a likeness of the Egyptian King Khafre

Pyramids

Emphasis on mathematical proportion and attention to detail

Geometric Form

Regular forms that are readily expressible in words or mathematics

Cubes, spheres, cylinders, cones, and pyramids are simple examples

American sculptor David Smith (1906–1965) learned welding in an automobile factory and fabricated tanks of thick armor plate during World War II

He burnished the stainless steel surfaces to create a counterpoint between industrial and natural form

Organic Form

The form of most things in the natural world is organic: irregular and unpredictable

Living things (and their form) change constantly

Can be used for expressive effect

Italian glass artist Lino Tagliapietra (b. 1934)

Tagliapietra conveys the idea of “a creature who emerges from his dark cave to share goodness and light”

He says of his work: “I imaged pieces that allow the viewer to see both the reality and fantasy of Batman’s world”

Mass

Mass suggests that something is solid and occupies space

Chapter 1.2 Form, Volume, Mass, and Texture

Gateways to Art: Understanding the Visual Arts, Third Edition, Debra J. DeWitte, Ralph M. Larmann, and M. Kathryn Shields

Our perception of mass is derived from our imagination, our previous experience with smaller objects, and our understanding of the forces of nature

Some artists imply mass to give the impression that the object we are looking at is very heavy

In movies, special-effect artists play with that illusion (e.g. boulders made of foam)

Texture is the tactile sensation when we physically encounter a three-dimensional form

In the early twentieth century, Surrealists created work that drew on ideas and images from dreams and the unconscious mind

In her sculpture, Oppenheim (1913–1985) takes normally hard and cool objects, and makes them soft and furry

Conjures up an unexpected sensation of fur tickling our lips

Form is recognizable, but the associated experience is not
