Description

Transforming unlikely pieces of scrap metal into significant works of art - giving new life to things we throw away - is an accessible, creative and fulfilling activity. This book describes and illustrates the concerns and techniques involved in making this kind of sculpture, looking behind the work at the richness and diversity of an area of sculpture that deserves to be far better known. Topics covered include the role and purpose of sculpture, the particular qualities of sculpture made from scrap metal and the practical processes involved in its making. It also covers sources of scrap metal, identifying metals, reviewing metalworking techniques, creative approaches, different types of sculpture, and the making, finishing and installation of pieces of sculpture.

  • Lovely photos & practical information
Format: Paperback
Lovely pictures and a wide variety of ideas. The author takes great care to explain the basics of scrap metal art, to include how to source your material. I have just started welding certification classes, with an eye to eventually making my own metal art, and I am happy I got this!
