David Smith Phaidon Focus
Author(s): Phaidon Focus
One of the best known American sculptors of the modern period, David Smith (1906-1965) was a pioneer of abstract sculpture. He revolutionised the possibilites of metal sculpture by introducing the industrial process of welding, enabling him to create the most extraordinarily balanced compositions - using metal to 'draw in space'. Predominantly known as a sculptor, the book also sheds light on his practice of drawing, sketching, writing and photographing his sculptures
