拍品專文


‘Sculpture should express a liking for ordinary unheroic people who are not idealised in any way. People are funny; their bodies and actions having teasing and tantalising forms … obstinate lovable lumps of flesh continually falling short of their aspirations. In this attitude of life I express something beyond my own nature, something more general about the human predicament. I don’t seek an idealised form of perfection or what is sometimes called grace. Grace makes an object remote and unattainable.’
Kenneth Armitage
