In the 1950s and 60s, Martin Heidegger turned to sculpture to
rethink the relationship between bodies and space and the role of
art in our lives. In his texts on the subject—a catalog
contribution for an Ernst Barlach exhibition, a speech at a gallery
opening for Bernhard Heiliger, a lecture on bas-relief depictions
of Athena, and a collaboration with Eduardo Chillida—he
formulates his later aesthetic theory, a thinking of relationality.
Against a traditional view of space as an empty container for
discrete bodies, these writings understand the body as already
beyond itself in a world of relations and conceive of space as a
material medium of relational contact. Sculpture shows us how we
belong to the world, a world in the midst of a technological
process of uprooting and homelessness. Heidegger suggests how we
can still find room to dwell therein. Filled with illustrations of
works that Heidegger encountered or considered, Heidegger Among the
Sculptors makes a singular contribution to the philosophy of
sculpture.
