The tutorials for this week (Oct. 27, 28, 29) will explore reductive and additive sculptural techniques. Your TAs will be assisting you to look comparatively at stone carving (reductive) and 'lost wax' bronze casting (additive). The following two videos will give you some insight into each sculptural method. Watch them and consider the differences between each technique. What are the advantages of one over the other? How might the materials and process be meaningful to the finished work in each instance?
