｢Boy and Girl｣
Lynn Chadwick (1914-2003)
Sharp lines and planes compose a unique and bold shape. The lowest parts like legs barely identify it a person. The rough finish connotes the innocence and pureness of a boy and a girl. The unique feature both concrete and abstract is the sculptor's style. He is a peculiar and important artist in modern sculpture world.
