Abstract sculpture is a sculpture, which is said to remove realist sculptures are outside the abstract sculpture. Abstract the meaning of sculpture, not particularly specific sculpture image, abstract sculpture body requirement, do not have and what the practical things alike, but not equal to the abstract sculpture is not required, it requires the other realm: some are completely abstract, it has beautiful features, ask for the intrinsic meaning, for example stainless steel forging streamline shape, smooth lines, the block should be beautiful, smooth surface; and a half abstract, also called the intention, it requires a little like a specific thing, and simplify the deformation, but also demonstrated the exaggerated beauty and inner meaning, such as abstract human. Abstraction is often beyond the reality outside the realm, realistic cannot demonstrate the realm, the abstract can, because it can not consider the specific shape, as long as love, is the good work.

China Eastern Jin Gu Kaizhi" to write to God" is actually very close to the ancient Greek" according to what should have to imitate", i.e. not only solve a problem, but not copy of the natural. Different is, the former emphasizes God is object activity, the latter emphasizes the object in the shape of the perfect. But Gu Kaizhi's" movement" with a" write" ( to write to God ), representatives from the Eastern Han Dynasty invented papermaking literacy class after the rapid expansion, and the beginning of the end illiteracy illiterate painters + audience in the early history of art. Illiterate painter or artist is painting ( painting) not only" write" ( words), only the literacy class to write"". The" writing" was constantly Gu after the painting follows and consolidation, such as" shaped to form" ( Zong Bing )," transfer mode" ( Sheikh )," write landscape aspect" ( emperor )," written in the view of" ( Wang Wei ), and the emergence of" write bamboo"," style"," sketch " such term, even for the introduction of Western painting is also called " sketch"," realism".

Abstract sculpture is able to read, "write" would certainly not like illiteracy illiterate" painting and the western painting " as a ready-made theme to pursue the shape, good and fine, because these are not the purpose of" writing". " Writing" is intended to express the writing main body's idea, feeling, the writing main body's" mighty" and" God." ( Wang Wei )," praising God." rather than" shaped to form". Therefore, the craftsman's realistic development of the Song Dynasty" riverside" levels," and the painting to the shape, see and children face" ( Su Shi ) criticism came out," there is poetry in a painting."" artistic conception" will rise, at the same time, poetry artistic conception explore also provide necessary conditions and aesthetic values. " Artistic conception " is clearly more emphasis on the subjectivity of painting, "meaning" in itself represents the creation main body, but the body is also the object and" exit" with be constrained by the subject, not arbitrary subject.
