Space is a formative factor in the production of sculpture.
Phenomenological thought interprets sculptural work in relation to
the immersive experience of the viewer, situating it within its
environment. But what possibilities lie beyond this unitary
position? What is the political potential of a sculptural object?
How can its spatial relations and movements be reconfigured beyond
its immediate environment? Spatial Politics of the Sculptural
investigates the concept of space and its role in the production of
the sculptural form from a multidimensional perspective. Engaging
with the work of Krauss, Fried, Merleau-Pony, Deleuze and Guattari,
and using case studies of urban development in Paris, New York and
Seoul it reinterprets and dislocates the sculptural form in terms
of the political dynamism of space proposing a new methodology for
reading, producing and expanding sculptural practice. Drawing on
David Harvey's theory of capital, it scrutinizes the idea of the
spatial in the process of urbanization. It examines the
interrelationship between capital flow and accumulation, and
explores the production and destruction of space in relation to the
creation of three-dimensional works of art. In doing so, it expands
the idea of the sculptural object in relation to the urban
environment.
