Catholic sculptor Christopher Ares joins us on the podcast to introduce us to the art of sculpture, especially its formal nature. Ares primarily works on ecclesiastical commissions, and the theoretical point of this conversation is his recent work, including the Pietà in progress and the monumental sculpture of St. Joseph, Guardian of the Happy Death. Revealed by reference to several.
Topics include:
- Collaboration with patrons on commissioned works
- Iconographic traditions in sculpture and painting
- Drawing as the root of sculpture and painting
- The challenge of modeling forms based on anatomy without being tied to literal accuracy
- Decorative and illustrative aspects of visual art
