We never cease to admire the purity of the shapes and forms of the body of the Venus de Milo, or the famous couple who tenderly embrace in the work entitled Psyche revived by the kiss of Love. Nude sculpture art is still just as captivating as it’s ever been, due to its simplicity and purity. Sculpture proves to be a formidable medium for tangibly embodying all the diversity and complexity of the human form.
Many artists past and present have put their own spin on their depiction of the naked human body, often recreating mythological and religious figures (Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux, Crouching Flora; Michelangelo, David; Leochares, Apollo of Belvedere; Laocoon Group).
Nudity in sculpture is intrinsically linked, in the History of Art, to the celebration of the human body which varies according to the canons and beauty standards of each civilisation. For example, among the Greeks, nudity represented human perfection from an ethical and aesthetic point of view. This is why their gods and goddesses were most often represented in the simplest form.
Sculpting a human body is an excellent exercise for an artist to understand the proportions of the human body. The sculptor can choose to depict his subject as faithfully as possible when relying on a living model, a nude woman sculpture or a bust sculpture, or he can exaggerate the features and the musculature of his subject to give each work a unique sense of strength and power.
Finally, it is possible to evoke nudity in abstract sculpture: the forms of the human body will then be more suggestive or even left to the artist’s imagination.
