Finding the Right Sculptures for You
Styling your home with vintage, new and antique sculptures means adding a touch that can meaningfully transform the space. By introducing a sculptural work as a decorative finish to any interior, you’re making a statement, whether you tend toward the dramatic or prefer to keep things casual with modest, understated art.
A single, one-of-a-kind three-dimensional figurative sculpture mounted on your dining room wall is a guaranteed conversation piece, while a trio of abstract works arranged on your living room bookshelves can add spontaneity to the collection of first-edition novels or artist monographs you’re displaying as well as draw attention to them. Figurative sculptures are representational works that portray a specific person, animal or object. And while decorating with busts, which are sculpted or cast figurative works, hasn’t exactly topped the list of design trends every year, busts are back. According to designer Timothy Corrigan, “They give humanity in a way that a more abstract sculpture can’t give.” Abstract sculptures, on the other hand, are not meant to show something specific. Instead, they invoke a mood or scene without directly stating what they are portraying.
Busts made of stone or metal may not seem like a good fit for your existing decor. Fortunately, there are many ways for a seemingly incongruous piece to fit in with the rest of your room’s theme. You can embrace a dramatic piece by making it the focal point of the room, or you can choose to incorporate several elements made out of the same material to create harmony in your space. If an antique or more dramatic piece doesn’t feel like you, why not opt for works comprising plastic, fiberglass or other more modern materials?
When incorporating sculpture into the design of your home — be it the playful work of auction hero and multimedia visionary KAWS, contemporary fiber art from Connecticut dealer browngrotta arts or still-life sculpture on a budget — consider proper lighting, which can bring out the distinctive aspects of your piece that deserve attention. And make sure you know how the size and form of the sculpture will affect your space in whole. If you choose a sculpture with dramatic design elements, such as sharp angles or bright colors, for example, try to better integrate this new addition by echoing those elements in the rest of your room’s design.
Get started on decorating with sculpture now — find figurative sculptures, animal sculptures and more on 1stDibs today.
Questions About Modern Ceramic Sculptures
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between ceramics and sculpture comes down to their purpose and materials. Made out of clay, ceramics are usually functional arts, meaning they serve a purpose beyond mere decoration. Examples include vases, bowls and drinkware. Sculpture is fine art. Sculptors use a wide range of materials, such as stone, wood, clay and plaster, to produce three-dimensional pieces that communicate messages, express thoughts and emotions or tell stories. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of ceramics and sculptures.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024The difference between sculpture and ceramics comes down largely to form and materials. Sculptures are three-dimensional works of art that can be produced out of a variety of materials, such as stone, wood, metal or plaster. Ceramics are decorative objects made out of earthen materials, such as clay. Some sculptures are made of ceramics, but ceramics can also be used to produce other types of objects, such as bowls, vases and dinnerware. Shop a wide variety of sculpture and ceramics on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Modern day sculptures are typically made with bronze, which is an alloy of copper and tin. Sculptures can also be crafted with gold, silver, aluminum, lead and iron. Find a collection of sculptures from many of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between sculpture clay and ceramic clay is composition. Sculpture clay usually involves synthetic polymers that make it easy to work into highly complex shapes. Although there are various types of ceramic clay, it generally is a mix of kaolin and ball clay, which are less flexible and stretchy. Due to its properties, it can be formed into more basic shapes. Find a variety of ceramics and sculptures on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024Rodin was called the Father of Modern Sculpture because he turned away from the traditional aim of sculptors and inspired future artists with his new approach. Instead of seeking to capture just how subjects looked, Auguste Rodin attempted to convey their emotions and inner lives through his pieces. You can see evidence of this in the simple yet dramatic quality of his most famous works like The Thinker, The Gates of Hell and The Kiss. Find a variety of Auguste Rodin art on 1stDibs.
