Back when art was really being developed as, well, an art...so much art was used as an output to comment on society of that day and age.
I think today art is very much the same as this. Artists tend to be very strong, opinionated people with beliefs. And these beliefs seem to show up alot in their art.

Blog #5(Late Blog)

So this blog is actually really, really late(This is the one that was due LAST saturday) But I'm posting it just for the sake of consistency.
This sculpture really caught my attention due to the vast amount of expression the artist was able to portray in the figures. The sculpture is about the woman experiencing the true ecstasy of heaven, and she was sculpted with such care and precision, you can literally see the ecstasy that she is experiencing. This is what sculpting should be all about; the realism in the sculpture.
