Sculptures are no different from paintings as well as photographs, depends on which perspective you will look at it. Oftentimes than not, people who enjoys art photographs (not those who love being photographed), are suckers for art museums too (Im referring to myself) . Sculptures are relics of history. It tells a story, it tells a history. Theres more than meets the eye, and the beauty of an art work is not limited to aesthetics, and yes you can walk around it and become more intimate. I will quote Dan Rice when he described sculptures as There are 3 forms of visual art, Painting is art to LOOK at, Sculptures is an art you can WALK AROUND and architecture is art you can WALK THROUGH. Perfect. I enjoy sculptures primarily because not only it serves its purpose as reminders of the past, but also its a good subject for photography. Minus the low light problems and other challenges, museums are a must for all photographers. Im a frequent visitor of the National Museum of Korea (and all other museums within reasonable distance). All the images above were taken during my last visit. The images were shot using my Fujifilm F200 EXR point and shoot camera (not SLR), and PP using CS4.
