Material, after all, is the vehicle through which artists express themselves, or at least work out the problems knocking around in their heads. Artists have long sought new ways and materials in order to make sculptures and express their ideas. Traditionally, this material and pottery as well as metal - bronze in particular - were among the most common materials associated with this field of visual art. The majority of surviving sculpted works from ancient cultures are stone. Stone sculpture, which essentially began as images carved into cave walls, is as old as human civilization itself. Technique and materials in sculpture have changed over time. A powerful three-dimensional means of creative expression, sculpture has long been most frequently associated with religion - consider the limestone Great Sphinx in Giza, Egypt - while the tradition of collecting sculpture, which has also been traced back to Greece as well as to China, far precedes the emergence of museums. In short, sculpture as a fine art has been with us forever.
