Sculpture 232 - Modularity

Two artists that I have found use modularity are :

Tony Smith (1912-1980), who used the possible configurations of two or more boxes to form minalimist sculptures.

Jili David, a Czech artist most well known for his sculpture in Prague made up of more than 85,000 metal keys.

Both of these artists utilize

Robert Rhee

Q: How has Rob Rhee moved across mediums, and how has it effected his work? Explain how this same issue has come up in your own work.


   Rob Rhee seems to have worked with a multitude of mediums, exploring each one to its fullest extent. In allowing himself to explore mediums, and to allow them to speak to him in their own way, Rob Rhee has, I would expect, opened a lot of doors for his work. Each time you experiment with unknown media, another door opens up for possibility.
   I am currently facing this challenge - what mediums should I explore next? What materials should I allow myself to experiment with? Truth is- I am trying to allow all sorts of mediums to come into my work...I believe that the more you experiment with, the more likely it will be that the variety of your work will grow.
