«La escultura: procesos y principios» is Rudolf Wittkower's art history study, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (336 pages, in Spanish).
Rather than a general history or technical manual, the author explores the relationship between methods of making and the formal ideas that guide sculpture and determine the final appearance of works. Through analysis of pieces and testimonies, he connects eras and artists, finding shared concerns between medieval workshops and the modern sculpture of Brancusi and Henry Moore.
Translation by Fernando Villaverde Landa. Belongs to the Alianza forma collection (number 8). The text comes from lectures Rudolf Wittkower gave in Cambridge in 1970-1971.
Reference work for students and professionals of art history, as well as for readers interested in sculptural theory.
