Here is an excerpt from the new Metal Art Steel Sculptures information webpage:

'Steel sculpture came into being at the hands of artists born at the beginning of the 20th century. These sculptors would adopt and modify European modernism in such a dramatic fashion that they developed a style of their own. These artists approached sculpture from a painte's point of view rather than a sculptor's and found meaning and beauty in industrial products and the use creation of geometric designs and abstract shapes. For them, steel was the material of choice. They understood that steel could replace not just the lines and planes of marble, iron and even wood, but give the finished work of art a power and presence no other material could match.

Steel sculpture opened the doors to new concepts. The size of the sculpture was now limited only be the imagination of the sculptor. And since steel was immune to effects of weather, large outdoor sculptures became common.'

There is plenty of more information on the new general information Metal Art Steel Sculpture Website that can be found by visiting: www.fistfire.com. There is also a special going on now that allow members to gain access to free ebooks and other free materials just for signing up as a member of the welding website for free at: www.fistfire.com Users should check back often to the Welding general page as more information will be added as the website expands and grows.
